  1. Whisk together pudding mix and milk in a medium bowl for 2 minutes. Allow to set for 5 minutes.
  2. Separate pudding mixture into two bowls and add food coloring to each bowl. I made a purple bowl and a light pink bowl. You can use whatever colors you want.
  3. Fold in cool whip.
  4. Add one tablespoon of crushed cookies into the bottom of the mason jars.
  5. Top with a layer of pudding mixture.
  6. Repeat layers, alternating with the colored pudding, until ending with cookie mixture.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  8. Add your shredded coconut to a container with a lid, add a few drops of food coloring and a touch of water. Shake until colored.
  9. Right before serving add some colored shredded coconut on top. Top with candy eggs and Peeps.
