Mudslide Pudding Shots

    After taking some time off for multiple activities, the girls and I finally got back together for a round of cards. We had all kinds of things to catch up on.
   Everyone always brings a dish, snack or appetizer of some kind to our card parties. The dish that was the real star of night was a twist on the familiar Jell-O shot, only using pudding. One of the girls brought Mudslide, Slippery Nipple and Pistachio pudding shots.
    These are made by combining pudding, alcohol and Cool Whip. The combinations are almost limitless and very easy to make. I've made Bailey's pudding shots before and it's like a tiny cup of light pudding with a very subtle kick. If you have an upcoming holiday party, this might be something to think about.

Mudslide Pudding Shots
1 small box (3.4 oz.) instant chocolate pudding
1 cup milk
3 oz. Irish cream liqueur
3 oz. Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
8 oz. Cool Whip

Combine cold milk and pudding in a medium bowl. Mix with an electric mixer or whisk until smooth. Blend in your choice of liquors. 

Fold in the Cool Whip until thoroughly blended. 

Fill cups and freeze for 1-2 hours. 

These are easy do-ahead dishes that can eaten frozen or thawed.
