    I made this in a clear trifle bowl instead of a flower pot, and it looked stunning!

  • Jan Watsica

    The cream cheese mixture was a little too sweet for my taste, so I reduced the confectioners' sugar by a couple of tablespoons.

  • Ebba Cummerata

    I used sugar-free pudding mix to cut down on the sugar content, and it still tasted great!

  • Zelma Davis

    This was a hit at my daughter's birthday party! Everyone loved the presentation.

  • Amely Dickinson

    My kids loved helping me layer the cookies and pudding. It's a fun and easy recipe to make with children.

  • Gardner Veum

    Instead of gummy worms, I used chocolate rocks for a more realistic 'dirt' effect.

  • Anjali Mueller

    I added some crushed Oreo Golden cookies for a change, and it was delicious!

  • Jacinthe Spinka

    Be sure to chill it long enough. It tastes much better after the flavors have had time to meld.
