What is Cookies & Cream Dessert Shots

- Cookies and cream is one of the most popular flavors in desserts, so it makes sense that people would want to add it to their cocktails as well.

What You Need to Make Cookies & Cream Dessert Shots:
- 2 shots of vodka or tequila
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled
- 4 Oreo cookies, crushed
- 2 tablespoons sprinkles, optional
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.

- Spoon mixture into 2 shot glasses and top with sprinkles if desired. Fold in the Cool Whip with a rubber spatula until combined.
- Spoon into shot glasses and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving (or overnight). Serve immediately! Enjoy!
Cooking Notes
- Use a high, quality chocolate for the best flavor. I like to use Hershey’s semisweet chocolate chips, which are made from organic and fair trade cocoa beans.
- A shot glass is the perfect size for these little desserts! If you don’t have any on hand, small ramekins will work just as well (or even a mini muffin tin).
- Invest in some good quality vanilla extract and chocolate syrup for this recipe—you can taste the difference in store, bought syrups and extracts! I recommend Nielsen, Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract or Domino Granulated Sugar because they both have excellent flavor and quality ingredients at reasonable prices.
- These tiny, creamy shots made with vodka, white chocolate liqueur, milk, and Oreo pudding will make you crave chocolate and alcohol forever. Add whipped cream and Mini Oreos as a garnish for an even better dessert drink.

- Use your favorite cookie recipe.
- Use your favorite cream recipe (i.e., whipped cream, Cool Whip, etc.).
- Use your favorite pudding recipe (pudding mix or from scratch).

- Make chocolate sauce to drizzle on top of the dessert shots before serving them – this step is optional but highly recommended!
