  This is a joke, a bit of whimsy to lighten up your next party. The cake is 
  really a quick mix dessert made with Oreo cookies and soft squishy stuff. 
  The trick is to capture everyone's attention with an announcement of some 
  sort, and as you are speaking, trowel out some of the dirt from the flower 
  pot around the flowers and eat it. May be followed by a worm dug out of 
  the "dirt". You may substitute vanilla pudding for the chocolate if you 
  want, and use up to 20 oz of Oreos. Please use a clean new plastic flower 
  pot or take the precaution of lining a clay pot with foil and wrap the 
  stems of live flowers if you use them in order to prevent any toxins from 
  entering the dessert. 
    Crush the cookies until they resemble potting soil.  Set aside.   
    Cream the butter or margarine, cream cheese, sugar  and vanilla until 
  smooth and fluffy.  Set aside.  Combine the pudding mix and milk until 
  well blended.  Then fold in the whipped topping.  Gently fold the cream 
  cheese and pudding mixtures together. 
    To put the "cake" together, layer one-third of the cookie crumbs 
  followed by 1/2 of the pudding mixture, 1/3 of the crumbs, the rest of the 
  pudding mixture and topping with the balance of the crumbs.   Refrigerate 
  10-12 hours before serving.  Remove from refrigerator, decorate with 
  flowers.  Serve by digging out portions with the trowel.  Serves 10 to 12.
