•INGREDIENTS:
½ cup Red Velvet Bailey’s (or substitute with regular Bailey’s)
¼ cup Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
1 small box of JELLO Chocolate Instant Pudding Mix
¾ cup Milk
8 oz container of Cool Whip
Christmas-themed sprinkles for garnish
•INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Prepare the Mixture:
Begin by taking a large mixing bowl and adding the instant chocolate pudding mix. Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to avoid any lumps. Continue whisking until the pudding mix is smooth and starts to thicken.
2. Add the Alcohol:
Gradually pour in the Red Velvet Bailey’s and Kahlua. Mix thoroughly to ensure that the flavors are evenly incorporated. The pudding will become creamier and slightly thinner in consistency with the addition of the liqueurs.
3. Incorporate the Cool Whip:
Gently fold in the Cool Whip a little at a time. This will give the pudding shots a light and fluffy texture. Be careful not to overmix; you want the mixture to stay airy.
4. Fill the Cups:
Using a tablespoon or small scoop, fill your shot cups with the pudding mixture. Each cup should be filled nearly to the top, leaving a little space for the sprinkles. For best presentation, use clear plastic shot cups to showcase the festive layers.
5. Chill:
Once all the cups are filled, place them on a tray and transfer them to the refrigerator. Allow the pudding shots to chill for at least 2-3 hours. For a firmer consistency, you can store them in the freezer.
6. Decorate:
Just before serving, top each shot with Christmas-themed sprinkles. This adds a festive touch and a slight crunch to the creamy dessert.
7. Serve and Enjoy:
Serve these delightful pudding shots at your Christmas gathering. They’re a perfect boozy treat for adults, combining the richness of chocolate with the smoothness of Bailey’s and the bold coffee notes of Kahlua.
These pudding shots are the ultimate holiday indulgence, offering a blend of creamy textures and festive flavors. Perfect for parties, they’re sure to be a hit with your guests!
