So Easy…Anyone Can Make It!

In addition to being tasty and sweet, Evans’ Missouri Dirt Cake is easy to make. So easy, that you don’t need any baking experience to whip it together.

Through an instructional video, Evans shares just how easy it is to put together a Missouri Dirt Cake. The written recipe breaks the process down into four steps, none of which are complicated.

In the video, Evans stresses over and over again just how easy the dish is to make. It takes well over ten times longer for the dessert to chill in the fridge than it does for you to make it!

Time For You To Try

All you need to prepare Evan’s favorite dessert is a block of cream cheese, a carton of whipped topping, instant vanilla pudding, milk, powdered sugar, and chocolate sandwich cookies. We bet you have most, if not all of these ingredients in your house right now!

After letting the dish chill in the fridge for a while, all you have to do is scoop it out and serve it. Based on how tasty it is, no one will ever guess how easy it was to make.
