Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place the green jello in a large mixing bowl and add the boiling water. Stir until the jello granules have dissolved.
  • Add the vodka to the mix and lightly stir to incorporate. 
  • Fill each shot glass, leaving just a bit of head room at the top. This doesn’t have to be perfect, it just makes it easier to transport them to the fridge and leaves a bit of room for the whipped cream to sit.
  • Place the shots in the fridge for 2 hours or until set.
  • Using a frosting bag and Ateco #824 frosting tip (or similar) top each shot glass with a dollop of whipped cream. I usually do this by simply starting on the outer edge and working in a circle until the whipped cream is high enough. You can top them with whipped cream however you like, though. 
  • Sprinkle each shot with a bit of the chocolate jimmies followed by the multicolored green jimmies. The amount of sprinkles depends on what makes your heart happy.
  • I usually shorten or remove the toothpicks from the toppers altogether and nestle them into the middle top of the cool whip. They’re not edible, but they sure are cute! 
  • Serve and enjoy!
