# Expert Advice:

01 -

Zero baking required, just whisk and layer while your kids hover around the kitchen impatiently.
Every component tastes genuinely delicious, not just cute, so adults actually want seconds.
The crushed Oreos genuinely look like dirt, which makes the playfulness feel earned rather than forced.

02 -

Do not make these more than a few hours ahead, because the Oreos will start softening and losing that satisfying crunch texture that makes the illusion work.
Always use clear cups, because half the charm is seeing those distinct layers through the sides, and opaque containers just look like regular pudding cups.
