Dirt Bowl Dessert
Makes 1 serving(s)

WHAT'S IN IT?
1 ounce low-fat chocolate grahams or graham snacks (1/4 cup crushed)
3/4 cup chocolate pudding made from skim (fat-free) milk
3 gummi worms, frogs or a combination (optional)

STUFF YOU NEED
Kitchen scale (if you have one!)
Blender
Dry measuring cup
Dessert dish or really cool-looking clear glass or bowl
Small rubber or silicone spatula
Spoon

HOW TO PUT IT TOGETHER
1. Use a kitchen scale to weigh out 1 ounce of the chocolate grahams. If you don't have a scale, read the label on the box to figure out about how many grahams are in 1 ounce.

2. Pour the grahams into a blender container. Make sure the lid is on tight! Blend on low speed until the grahams are completely crushed and look like dirt. If you measure it out, it'll make about 1/4 cup of "dirt."

3. Smoosh the chocolate pudding ("mud") into a dessert dish or a really cool-looking clear glass or bowl using a small rubber or silicone spatula.

4. Scatter the "dirt" on top of the "mud."

5. If you like dirt creatures, serve with gummi worms and/or gummi frogs on top! Or, if you're serving this to someone else . . . bury gummi worms in the mud as a slippery surprise!

6. With a spoon, shovel the "dirt" right into your mouth! Yummy!
