Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Pour a bag of chocolate cookies with vanilla centers into plastic storage bag. Use a rolling pin to turn the cookies into a fine powder.

  2. Step 2

    Make chocolate pudding or purchase it ready made. Mix half of the cookie mix in the pudding to create edible dirt.

  3. Step 3

    Spoon the edible dirt into a baking dish. Cover it with the remaining edible dirt and refrigerate.

  4. Step 4

    Purchase wafer-style oval cookies. Place them in rows, and make some of them crooked to mimic headstones. You can pipe frosting onto them to write "RIP" or other appropriate Halloween phrases.

  5. Step 5

    Create ghosts in your graveyard with whipped cream. Use whipped cream from a tub rather than a can, so it hold its shape. Put the whipped cream into a plastic storage bag and snip off a tiny bit from one corner.

  6. Step 6

    Squeeze out the body of your ghost and add a smaller head. Add eyes using cake decorating embellishments.

  7. Step 7

    Keep your graveyard Halloween treat refrigerated until you're ready to serve it or the ghosts will melt.

Tips & Warnings
  • You can make these treats in individual cups rather than a full baking dish.
