Cream Cheese Dirt Pudding Dessert

April 2, 2017 By Sam 2 Comments

This past week was my husband’s birthday. Nowadays we don’t do much for birthdays what with work and grownup responsibilities. But … I do try my hardest to make the day special without spending much money. Usually I do this with his favorite meals (and having the boys make cute cards). I opted to do chicken and waffles for dinner *yum* and his number one dessert: cream cheese dirt pudding!

Rich and creamy with a hint of crunchy chocolate, this dessert is perfect most any time. The whole family is sure to love cream cheese dirt pudding!

If you’re anything like me, this title will confuse you. I’ll never forget the first holiday I spent with my husband’s family. It was Christmastime. After dinner, this vanilla looking dessert was brought out to much fanfare. I was so confused! Everyone was using the term “Dirt Pudding” to describe it. But what I know of dirt pudding is a chocolate pudding with Oreo cookies and worms in it.

Rich and creamy with a hint of crunchy chocolate, this dessert is perfect most any time. The whole family is sure to love cream cheese dirt pudding!

Eventually, the family convinced me to try this unusual cream cheese dirt pudding. And boy am I glad they did! I love this stuff almost as much as my husband does now! It’s rich and creamy with a hint of crunchy chocolate. This dessert is perfect for pretty much any occasion you can think of: birthdays, holidays, first day of school, last day of school, scoring a great deal at Target, etc. I’m planning on making it for Easter dessert this year!

Rich and creamy with a hint of crunchy chocolate, this dessert is perfect most any time. The whole family is sure to love cream cheese dirt pudding!

If you’re looking for a new treat that the whole family is sure to love, don’t pass this one up!
