These pudding shots bring all the creaminess of eggnog, warm spice of ginger snaps and a boozy twist with RumChata and spiced rum. They layer beautifully and chill quickly for a festive dessert or party treat. Each shot is rich, tangy and perfectly balanced.
In a large bowl, whisk together pudding mix and cold eggnog for about one minute, or until thickened. Add horchata cream liqueur and spiced rum. Whisk until smooth.
Stir in defrosted whipped topping and ground nutmeg until fully incorporated. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to use.
When ready to serve, spoon 2 teaspoons of crushed ginger snap cookies into each 2-ounce shot glass. Add about 3 tablespoons of pudding mixture over crumbs into each cup.
Top with a whole ginger snap cookie.
Notes
Chill all liquids first: Ensures pudding sets well. Crush cookies finely: Gives a smooth base layer without large chunks. Use small clear cups: They show off the layers beautifully. Add the cookie garnish just before serving: Keeps it crisp and fresh.
