Baileys Shots with Pudding
Funny story: so when I’m on trips (either vacation or for work) I like to drink Baileys in my coffee…for breakfast. I mean, I’m not driving, so it’s really just a good creamer. A friend of mine always packs mini Baileys whenever she travels and we were at the hotel restaurant having breakfast and working (with our laptops, so really working, not just talking). I poured some of the Baileys into my coffee and happened to catch the eye of another patron across the restaurant…from her look it would seem not everyone thinks to travel with mini Baileys bottles. YOU’RE WELCOME INTERNET.
Baileys Pudding Shots are an easy cocktail that makes pudding drinkable with the help of Baileys Irish Cream!
Ingredients Needed
- Pudding (either prepared by you from a box or you can use the little cups you steal from your kids’ lunch stash)
- Milk and/or Baileys – you can make these as strong as you want: stronger, don’t use milk. Weaker, water it down with milk.
You can also make these into mocktail Pudding Shots by skipping the baileys and using milk. Add a teeny tiny drop of mint extract for that minty (Irish) flavor.
How to make Baileys Shots
- Place sytup shallow plate and green sanding sugar on another. Dip each Shot Glass upside down in the corn syrup then in the sugar.
- Place pudding, milk, and Baileys in a two cup measuring cup or shaker. Whisk until combined. Pour into shot glasses.

Expert Tips
- Either make your pudding from a box of instant chocolate pudding (make according to the directions on the box) or buy the prepared pudding cups.
- It’s best to use cows milk if you’re using powdered mix – otherwise the pudding mix might not set up properly. Any nondairy milk can be used to thin prepared pudding cups.
- You can use any flavor pudding you like.

OK, I’m totally singing Cumbaya with you…
I love what you had to say about blogging in this post. I have only been doing it for 5 months, but it has started to feel like my job now. And it’s great!! I still get to be a SAHM and do what I love – bake! But it does take a lot of time and I haven’t seen a paycheck yet. Someday!
This looks fabulous! YUM!
