Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pack chocolate pudding mix prepare according to package instructions
  • 1 1/2 cups cold milk
  • 1 cup cookie crumbles optional: store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows for tombstones
  • 4 tombstone-shaped cookies or candies to resemble grave markers

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Pudding cups or small glasses
  • Spoon
  • Cookie crumbles (prepared or homemade)
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Decorative tombstone-shaped cookies or candies

Method
 

  1. Whisk the chocolate pudding mix with cold milk until smooth and slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes to allow it to firm up.
  2. Spoon the prepared pudding evenly into each serving cup or glass, filling them about three-quarters full. Tap gently to level the surface and remove air bubbles.
  3. Sprinkle a generous layer of cookie crumbles over the pudding, creating a textured, earthy layer that mimics soil or graveyard surface.
  4. Place mini marshmallows upright on the cookie crumbles to resemble tombstones standing in the graveyard. Arrange some randomly for a spooky, chaotic look.
  5. Insert the tombstone-shaped cookies or candies into the marshmallows to clearly mark each grave, giving a final eerie touch to your scene.
  6. Once assembled, serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to display. The pudding will remain creamy, and the decorations will hold their shape for several hours.

Notes

For extra spooky effects, add gummy worms or edible eyeballs among the decorations.
