In a large bowl, whisk together the chocolate instant pudding mix and 2 cups of cold milk. Whisk vigorously for about 2 minutes until the mixture thickens. Let it set for 5 minutes to fully gel.
Gently fold 1 cup of whipped topping into the pudding. This makes the pudding lighter and creamier, giving a mousse-like texture that’s perfect for layering.
Crush the chocolate cookies into fine crumbs using your hands or a rolling pin inside a sealed bag. If you’re opting for a salty crunch, cook the turkey bacon until crispy, then crumble it finely and mix it with the cookie crumbs.
Start by adding a layer of the crushed cookie mixture to the bottom of each cup. Next, spoon a generous layer of the chocolate pudding mixture on top. Repeat the layering if your cups are tall enough.
Nestle gummy worms on the top layer, letting some peek out as if they’re crawling through the dirt. Sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles for extra decoration if desired.
Place your assembled cups in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill. This helps the layers set nicely and enhances the flavors. Serve chilled for the best experience!
