Whipping Up Bailey's Pudding Shots
There's more than one flavor when it comes to pudding so naturally there's plenty of variations on the classic boozy Bailey's pudding shots for you to indulge in.
- Instead of plain vodka, try vanilla, chocolate, raspberry, strawberry, whipped cream, or espresso.
- Of course, you can totally change your pudding flavor! Try out butterscotch, pumpkin spice, salted caramel, vanilla, pistachio, or banana cream.
- Switch up the Bailey's flavor you add to your recipe. You'll want to make sure the Bailey's flavor works with both the vodka and the pudding. But you'll find Bailey's Chocolate, Bailey's Almande, salted caramel, vanilla cinnamon, espresso, chocolate cherry, and red velvet. They're all totally delish.
- Add a heaping cup of frozen whipped cream to your pudding shots to make them even creamier.
- Garnish with whipped cream or roughly chopped chocolate chips.
