I love White Russians. They are dangerously drinkable with just the right mix of coffee liqueur, creamy half and half, along with a bit of vodka. Like I said, dangerous. So why not take these ingredients, throw in a little pudding, and make an irresistible adult dessert? 

These white Russian pudding shots are so simple to make, all you need is a few boxes of instant pudding mix and some chilled liquor. Instead of milk, we use booze as the liquid component of the pudding. Genius! We will top these little glasses of heaven off with a dollop of whipped cream and a dusting of coffee powder for an out of this world treat. These tiny delicacies are perfect for a party or even for a picnic, when kept chilled. If you must make a virgin version, use milk for the vanilla pudding and chilled coffee for the chocolate pudding.

The best part is they really can be made in a flash. Swap out the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar in this recipe for already made whipped cream and it becomes even faster! There is really no excuse not to give these unstoppable pudding shots a try. If you’re already a White Russian lover, you might just have everything in your pantry to make them.

So if you’re ready to dole out the next talk of the party, with very little effort, whip up a batch of these bad boys. Check out the variations below for even more tempting pudding shot ideas!

Since I was a little girl, I've been all about food. As a 7 year old, my first half-baked attempt at chocolate cake was comprised of scrambled eggs and chocolate milk powder microwaved, then topped off with Red Hots. I've come a long way since then. I've been lucky enough to get to work in restaurants for 10 years and graduate from one of the best culinary schools in the country. At the moment I'm enjoying working with a killer food photographer while doing freelance food styling and writing. I'm always excited thinking about what my next culinary adventure will bring. Who knows, maybe I'll revisit that chocolate cake with Red Hots.
