Pudding preparation

Stir together sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt in medium saucepan; gradually stir in milk.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils; boil and stir for one minute.
Remove from heat; stir in butter and vanilla.
Serve warm or refrigerate for 2 hours.
Pour into a large container; to avoid a skin from forming on top, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface.

Graveyard preparation

Mix the Oreo crumbs and some of the chocolate syrup together in a bowl to make a “dirt paste”.
To serve add a spoonful of chocolate pudding and a spoonful of the “dirt paste” into a small bowl and top with a gummy worm and candy pumpkin.
Add a little wooden stick as a gravestone and it can double as a spoon.
