In a medium mixing bowl, add all ingredients for the 'pudding.' Stir together until smooth. Optionally chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour for a thicker pudding.
Add chocolate sandwich cookies to a food processor or blender. Pulse until it reaches a fine crumb texture. Alternatively, crush the cookies in a large ziplock plastic bag, using your hands or a rolling pin.
Divide pudding into 4 small jars, layering with the crumbled cookies. Top with more crumbled cookies and gummy worms and serve.

Notes

If not using protein powder, then add an extra 2 tbsp cocoa powder and an extra 1-2 tbsp maple syrup, or to taste. The pudding will be a bit less thick but still delicious! Chill in the fridge to help thicken. HERE are the vegan gummy worms I used! They're gelatin free and natural colored and flavored with fruit and vegetable juices. They're sweet, fruity, and chewy!
