Your Christmas party will be Ho! Ho! Ho! not Ho! Ho! Hum! with these adult Candy Cane Pudding Shots. Your favorite Christmas treat with a nice little peppermint kick. Smooth and creamy!
I am quickly becoming the Pudding Shot King of the internet. Not what I expected but I guess everyone needs to be known for something.
So it all started with Halloween last year when I made my Caramel Apple Pudding Shots and they were a huge hit. It’s my most popular post and is tops on Google. Who would of thunk it!
This fall I decided to expand my pudding shot selections so I started experimenting with different fall and winter flavors. My first post was for my Pumpkin Pie Pudding Shots.
Then I created a Toffee, EggNog and these awesome Candy Cane Pudding Shots. All will be perfect for your holiday party.
The Candy Cane Pudding Shots are made with White Chocolate and Red Velvet Jello pudding and the alcohol is Dekuyper Creme de Menthe or Peppermint Schnapps and Rumchata.
If you can’t find the Red Velvet pudding just use vanilla and add some red food coloring. I created the Toffee Pudding Shots based on the candy I make every year for Christmas and am selling on my Facebook store. Unfortunately, I can only sale in Ohio this year.
All Jello pudding shots are simple to make and only takes about an hour or two to set up in the freezer. I serve mine frozen, but you could also serve them chilled.
I could not find the clear 1 oz cups with lids this year at Gordon Food Service (GFS), so I had to move up to the opaque 2 oz size. I would rather have the clear but that is just for the blog pictures.
The little spoons are not necessary because you could just squeeze the shot out of the cup and finish it off with your tongue. I guess it depends on how sophisticated the crowd is at your party. The later in the evening the less important the spoons become anyway.
