Ingredients
- 2 cups milk
- 1 small package instant vanilla pudding
- 1 tub cool whip (8oz size), thawed
- 1 package (14oz) Vanilla Sugar Wafer Cookies
- Plastic Cups (7 oz size)
- Gummy Sharks or similar items for decoration
- Paper Umbrella Toothpicks
Directions
In a large bowl add milk and pudding mix. Whisk until blended and no longer lumpy, let set for 5 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a food processor, crush 1 package of sugar wafers to fine crumbs.
Stir whipped topping with pudding mix and add half of the crushed cookies to the mix.
Layer ingredients to make sand cups:
1-1/2 tablespoon crushed cookies in the bottom of the cup. Fill cup 3/4 full with pudding mix and top with cookies (about 1 to 1-1/2 tablespoon crushed cookies)
Refrigerate for an hour, or overnight.
Decorate with gummy sharks and paper umbrellas before serving.
I often double this recipe, or just put less “beach” in each cup to make more servings.
