Method
 

  1. Whisk together the milk and pumpkin puree until well combined.
  2. Add the pudding mix, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice and whisk for 2 minutes or until the pudding thickens. Place the pudding in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to soft set.
  3. Sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of Oreo crumbs into the bottom of each serving glass, ensuring the bottom of the glass is well covered.
  4. Add a layer of pumpkin pudding on top of the crushed Oreos.

  8. When ready to serve, sprinkle a small amount of the green coconut over the pudding cups to create grass. Decorate with 2-3 candy pumpkins.
