Pudding Shots Three Ways with Cream Liqueurs

HAPPY NEW YEAR and the best to everyone in 2018!

Pudding shots are an easy, do-ahead dessert and perfect for a brunch table on New Year’s Day. A little creamy, chocolatey and enhanced with a liqueur is a nice addition to help celebrate the New Year. I have provided two recipes and made the first one with the original Baileys.

Once in awhile you have to bring out the Jello  and Cool Whip products!

Pudding Shots With Cream Liqueurs

White Russian:

  • 1 (4 oz.) pkg. instant chocolate pudding
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vodka
  • 1/2 cup Baileys (original)
  • 1 (8 oz.) container Cool Whip, thawed
  • milk chocolate flakes to garnish
  • chocolate decorations to garnish (I forgot to use my “champagne bottle” sugar decorations)
  • gold shimmer sugar to garnish

Mix the pudding and milk for a minute with an electric mixer; add the alcohol and continue to mix. Then fold in the Cool Whip. Put the pudding mix into plastic serving cups with lids. You can buy these in different sizes depending on the number of guests. Or put into glasses if you are only serving a few. Keep in the freezer until ready to serve. This recipe made about (10) 1/2 cup servings.

Rum Cream Pudding Shots:

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup RumChata (rum cream liqueur)
  • 1 (4 oz.) pkg. instant chocolate pudding
  • 1 (8 oz.) container Cool Whip, thawed

Mix the milk and pudding mix together in a bowl for a minute using an electric mixer. Gently stir the topping into pudding mixture. Spoon into serving cups and freeze until chilled and set, at least 3 hours.

Tiramisu Pudding Shots

  • 3 lady fingers, cut into pieces
  • unsweetened cocoa powder

Combine the pudding, milk, vodka and Kahlua. Fold in the whipped topping. Spoon into small cups and tops with crumbled lady fingers and cocoa powder. Freeze overnight before serving.

    • Ha!Ha! I had one for breakfast and I told myself “Judi, you don’t drink before noon and rarely before five”. I just wanted something chocolate and creamy 🙂 A little kick was nice! Happy New Years and “cheers” to 2018!
