22 Super Delicious Baileys Pudding Shots

Chocolate Pudding Shots with Baileys

Chocolate pudding shots with Irish cream are dreamy, and it doesn’t get any easier than this recipe from Crazy for Crust. Take some prepared chocolate pudding mix and add in a little milk, Baileys, and corn syrup and whip up an easy party treat in no time. Just stir the pudding mixture until completely combined and serve in sugar-rimmed shot glasses. 

This is another super simple recipe that results in a super delicious treat. Chocolate pudding mix, Irish Cream Liqueur, and a little bit of Irish Whiskey for some extra booziness that we aren’t going to say no to. Serve pudding shots with cool whip topping and chocolate shavings. 

Ok, there just aren’t many flavors that go better together than chocolate and strawberry, and these shots with Bailey’s Irish Cream and two types of pudding prove it. 

Use Strawberry Bailey’s Irish Cream and strawberry pudding for one layer and regular Baileys and chocolate pudding mix for the other. 

When combined with whipped cream, the mixture is light, creamy, and sweet. Layer the puddings in each little cup and let chill in the fridge for the night. Serve as shots or a mini dessert the next day. Trust us, with a few chocolate shavings; these will be a huge hit! 

Let’s see a show of hands from those that have an obsession with Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies. We have both hands in the air, which is why we love these creamy chocolate shots that highlight one of our favorite treats! 

Prepare the chocolate pudding per direction in a large mixing bowl, then transfer it to shot glasses. Before serving, top these chocolate shots with Cool Whip and crushed cookies. Enjoy with abandon, without worrying about nutrition, calories, saturated fat, and all that other stuff! Just don’t drive, and remember to drink responsibly.

White Russian Pudding Shots

We love that these White Russian Pudding Shots use instant espresso powder for an authentic coffee taste. These delicious shots are easy to make, requiring just instant pudding, milk, Baileys, whipped cream vodka, espresso powder, and cool whip that you whisk together. 

Garnish ideas include chocolate shavings or even a little chocolate-covered espresso bean. You might serve them in tiny cups, but they taste just like dessert. 

Sometimes, sticking a pudding shot in the freezer for a bit is the perfect way to take it up a couple of notches. These frozen White Russian shots are perfect for summer or as part of a wintry frozen theme during the holidays. 

The prep time is minimal, as all you have to do is mix the ingredients, including Baileys, Kahlua, vanilla vodka, pudding mix, and milk, in a bowl. Transfer to little plastic ups and stick in the freezer until set and reading for serving. 

These little dessert shots are easy to make ahead of time, but be warned – you might accidentally consume a couple of shots straight from the bowl as you’re putting them into the little plastic cups. This is a classic cocktail recipe transformed with a box of vanilla pudding mix. You can also freeze these if you want an extra cool treat. 

Forget the typical tequila shots at your next party. Serve these shots with pudding, Bailey’s Irish Cream, and coffee-flavored tequila instead! Ok, so we know that a White Russian is supposed to be vodka, coffee liqueur, and cream, but this variation features very similar flavors, with the vodka being switched out for Cafe Tequila. Top with chocolate shavings, and you have one of the best party shots ever.

Simple and delicious, these are perfect for any occasion. Vanilla and Baileys are perfect partners, and this recipe also offers some great ideas for variations. You could even use sugar-free pudding if you’re looking for a skinnier version.

This recipe calls for cookies and cream pudding, but we tried this recipe using vanilla pudding mix because it’s what we had on hand, and it was delicious. To make this substitution, try adding a good amount of finely crushed chocolate sandwich cookies to the mix. 

This truly is dessert in a shot glass. If you’re using the little plastic cups that are used for jello shots, try upsizing a bit, so you can serve these with a spoon. The recipe calls for a cheesecake pudding mix, which is heavenly. We made a double batch, using one box of cheesecake mix and another box of vanilla mix to mellow the sweetness a bit. 

Christmas Baileys Pudding Shots

These are cute and fun ways to celebrate the holiday season. In fact, we’d suggest leaving one of these out for Santa instead of the standard glass of milk. Recipes like this are easy to make and take advantage of festive garnishes to add a little holiday flair. 

There are tons of recipes out there for boozy hot chocolate, but something tells us this pudding shot is going to be a new favorite. Baileys and hot cocoa mix are perfect partners in crime in this easy winter holiday treat. 

Salted caramel is wonderful around the holidays, and these salted caramel mocha pudding shots are divine. The recipe calls for regular Baileys, but we used the salted caramel variety of Baileys instead. It’s so good.

St Patrick’s Day Baileys Pudding Shots 

Irish-themed drinks are a non-negotiable part of celebrating St Patrick’s Day, and the pistachio pudding mixed with Baileys creates a dreamy light green color that deserves to be the star of its own photo shoot.

The texture of an Irish car bomb shot might be a little offputting, but not when you add some pudding to the equation. Baileys, Guinness Stout, Irish Whiskey, French vanilla puddings, chocolate sauce, and milk are the start of something wonderful with these pudding shots.
