ellen's luscious lemon lust
When asked recently by a friend for my Dirt Pudding recipe I thought about the cookies I had just bought--a lemon-flavored Oreo cookie. And that got me to thinking about making a lemon dirt pudding. Just change up the cookies and the pudding. I thought it might just be awesome! I made it today and it is more than awesome--my guests couldn't get enough! This is guaranteed to wow lemon lovers! 06-02-15

How To Make ellen's luscious lemon lust
-
Step 1In a food processor, blender, or in a plastic bag with a rolling pin, crush the cookies.
-
Step 2Place 1/2 of the cookie crumbs in the bottom of a sprayed 9x13x2-inch baking pan.
-
Step 3In a large bowl, mix cream cheese and butter together until smooth.
-
Step 4Add the Cool Whip and the confectioners' sugar.
-
Step 5In another bowl, mix the milk, vanilla extract, and the pudding mixes.
-
Step 6Add the pudding mixture to the cream cheese mixture and mix until completely blended.
-
Step 7Spoon a layer of the pudding over the cookies already in the pan. Repeat layers, scattering cookie crumbs over the pudding, ending with cookies on top.
-
Step 8Decorate with some lemon-flavored Gummy Bears or crushed lemon drops if desired.
-
Step 9Refrigerate for at least 2 hours and serve cold. Delicious summertime treat!
-
Step 10NOTE: I used an electric mixer to mix the ingredients as I added them. It made the dessert smooth as silk! If you like extra lemon flavor, you may use two boxes of lemon pudding instead of one lemon and one vanilla.
