You can make them ahead of time and keep them in the refrigerator, pull them out when you’re ready to serve them, add some whipped cream and some Christmas sprinkles and you’re good to go. They’re great to pass around at a party, or hand out to a few guests. Either way, everyone will be happy you made these!

Ingredients:

  • Knox Gelatin
  • Water
  • Ice cubes
  • Bailey’s Irish Cream
  • Butterscotch Schnapps
  • Triple Sec
  • Whipped Cream
  • Sprinkles
  • Plastic shot cups

How To Make Sugar Cookie Jello Shots

These shots are pretty simple to make. If you’ve ever made jello before, the concept is just the same. The only difference is we are adding a few extra ingredients.

First, you’ll boil water like usual, remove it from the heat and add in the gelatin. Once it dissolves, add some ice cubes to cool it down so it’s ready for the alcohol. Stir in the Irish Cream, Schnapps and Triple Sec.

Pour these in your cups about 3/4 of the way full so you’ll later have room for whipped cream.

The Topping

After these have set up (it’s best to let these sit in the fridge overnight) and you’re read to serve, add a big dollop of whipped cream on top. Sprinkle your favorite holiday sprinkles on top and serve.

These would go great at a fun Ugly Christmas Sweater party or a White Elephant gift exchange!
