I make pudding shots all of the time and will sometimes modify the recipe. In this case, rather than putting in 1/2 cup of the bourbon, I am using 2 cups of the liquor store-bought eggnog with the booze already included. YUM!
Pudding shots are always an added hit to parties and supper club gatherings.
Susie Marin says
The pudding calls for 3 cups of milk, do you use an additional cup of milk? Or are you using a pudding mix that calls for only 2 cups of milk? 🙂
Stephanie Jack says
Hi there so I made mine with what ingredients I had at home already and just now put it in the fridge so I have yet to try it. So here’s what I used, Butterscotch instant pudding, store bought eggnog, Fireball whiskey, and ground nutmeg.

Stephanie, let me know how you liked them with those changes! It sounds delicious.

I made this recipe. Substituted regular egg nog for pumpkin egg nog for a nice fall flavor. Topped each shot with whipped cream and a dash of nutmeg. My guests loved them!
Ann says
Yum! That sounds delicious, Jennifer. I am so glad you all enjoyed them.
