Author: Lolli
Serves: 12
Ingredients
  • 1 package vanilla sandwich cookies (Golden Oreos)
  • 5 graham crackers
  • 2 small boxes Vanilla instant pudding mix
  • Milk (according to instant pudding recipe)
  • 8 oz package cream cheese, softened
  • 12 oz Cool Whip
  • 12 plastic cups (I used clear aqua-colored plastic cups for a beachy look)
  • 24 Teddy Grahams
  • 12 mini umbrellas
  • 12 jawbreakers or gumballs
Instructions
  1. Place cookies and graham crackers in blender and blend into crumbs. (Alternate: you can use the old-fashioned ziploc bag and rolling pin, but the blender is much faster!)
  2. Mix both boxes of vanilla instant pudding according to package directions. Blend in cream cheese then fold in Cool Whip (Alternate: you can make your own whipped cream too).
  3. Layer a small amount of cookie crumbs and a few spoonfuls of pudding (beginning and ending with cookie crumbs). Hint: I gently tapped each cups down on the counter after each layer to flatten.
  4. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  5. "Decorate" your sand pudding with mini umbrellas, teddy grahams, and a gumdrop beach ball before serving.

(You can get the little cocktail umbrellas on Amazon or at your local party store)

Note: The two ingredients I kept seeing in most of the recipes I found were sugar and butter. I couldn’t imagine needing to add more sugar to pudding and Cool Whip so I left it out altogether. I also wasn’t fond of the idea of adding butter to my pudding. I mean…I wasn’t trying to make a healthy snack or anything but I try not to go to crazy with my treats. I don’t think we were missing out on anything. These sand pudding cups were delicious just the way they were!

    These sand pudding cups are so cute. The kids will love them. I’ve never made them pudding cups before, but I think it’s something they would really enjoy this summer.
    Thanks for sharing at Merry Monday. Hope to see you at the party next week!
