Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Set aside.
Prepare the chocolate pudding by whisking the instant pudding mix with the milk in a bowl. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until well combined.
Fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and fluffy.
Gently fold the prepared chocolate pudding into the cream cheese mixture until evenly combined.
In a serving dish (such as a large glass trifle bowl or individual dessert cups), layer the cookie crumbs and the pudding mixture, starting and ending with the cookie crumbs to resemble layers of soil.
Decorate the top layer of cookie crumbs with gummy worms to give the appearance of worms in dirt.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the dessert to set.
