One Year Anniversary!

 

Happy One Year Anniversary to Us!

 
Can you believe we have been married one year?! Time flies when you're having fun!  We celebrated a couple days early due to the fact that on our actual Anniversary, Alex would be starting his first day of SERE School (I'll do a whole post on that later!) We had a wonderful dinner date at the Restaurant in downtown Enterprise, "The Rawls" and we can't wait to take family here when you come visit! It was delectable! Cheers to many, many more Anniversaries! I love you Alex Wales, being married to you is my very favorite of all time!
 
 
This post's recipe is dedicated to Alex! Dirt cake is probably his very favorite desert- he would fight to the death for this chocolatey dish and it is devoured each and every time I make it! Kids and Adults both love it!
 
Dirt Cake:
  • 1 package (15-1/2 ounces) Oreo cookies
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup butter*
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 cups milk
  • 2 packages (3.4 ounces each) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 carton (12 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
 
Directions

  • Crush cookies until they resemble potting soil.
  •  Beat the cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. In another bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes (mixture will be thick). Fold in whipped topping. Gently fold into cream cheese mixture until blended.
  •  Cover and refrigerate until chilled (at least 3 hours). In large bowl, alternate crumbs and pudding mixture. Garnish with gummy worms.

* Sometimes I do not add butter, it is not necessarily required!
