GHOSTS IN THE GRAVEYARD

GHOSTS IN THE GRAVEYARD
This was so fun to make. Jackson liked putting on the tombstones. Great FHE activity/refreshment. I thought it tasted better the next day.

1 pkg. (16 oz) chocolate sandwich cookies (I used Oreos - but plain chocolate might work better)
3 1/2 cups cold milk
2 pkg (4 oz each) Jell-o Chocolate Instand Pudding (I used the big one)
2 (8 oz) Cool Whip, thawed
----
Milano cookies
Gel frosting
candy corns or candy pumpkins
Halloween sprinkles

Crush cookies. Make pudding and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in 3 cups of the cool whip and 1/2 of the crushed cookies. Put into a 9x13. Sprinkle rest of cookie crumbs. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until ready to serve.

To decorate:
*Milano cookies to make the tombstones. (I thought it would be a fun idea to write our names on the tombstones with gel frosting)
*Can scatter sprinkles, candy corns or candy pumpkins if you wish
*Drop dallops of remaining whipped topping onto dessert to make "ghosts" (I used some chocolate sprinkles we had to make the ghost eyes).
