Graveyard Dirt Cups

Method

1. 01

   Step 1: Cook the pudding

   Whisk the sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan, then whisk in the milk, salt and vanilla until smooth. Cook over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, until it simmers and thickens — about 6 minutes.

2. 02

   Step 2: Melt in the chocolate

   Take off the heat, add the chopped chocolate and butter and whisk until melted and glossy.

3. 03

   Step 3: Chill

   Press cling film onto the surface so no skin forms and refrigerate for about an hour, until cold.

4. 04

   Step 4: Fold in cream

   With a mixer, whip the cold cream to soft peaks and fold it into the cold pudding in a few additions. Fold in half a cup of the cookie crumbs.

5. 05

   Step 5: Make gravestones

   Melt the chocolate, spoon it into a piping bag with a fine tip and write 'RIP' on each oval biscuit. Chill to set.

6. 06

   Step 6: Build the graveyard

   Layer crumbs, pudding, more crumbs and pudding in the glasses and finish with a generous layer of soil. Push in a gravestone and add worms crawling out of the dirt.
