To make these jello shots you just need the following ingredients:

  • 3.9oz Box Pumpkin Pudding
  • Halloween Sprinkles 
  • Whipped Cream

You can buy Pumpkin pudding at most grocery stores in the fall. 

What Alcohol Do These Halloween Pudding Shots Contain?

I used Pumpkin Rumchata for my pudding shots to give them an extra taste of autumn. 

Pumpkin, of course , is the perfect fall flavor and great for these kinds of treats. 

RumChata is a fantastic blend of rum, spices and dairy.

If you don’t have the pumpkin version, you can use regular RumChata, 

What else can I use instead of RumChata? 

If you don’t have RumChata at all, you can easily use Bailey’s Irish cream instead.

Although the flavor profile will be different, the two are often used interchangeably in recipes.

The total time to make these shots is about 5 minutes of active work. 

As pudding is different from Jello, you don’t need to wait for these shots to set in the fridge before serving although they do taste great chilled. 

Here’s how to make these Hocus Pocus shots:

Combine the pumpkin rumchata, whipped topping & pudding mix in a mixing bowl.

Transfer mixture to condiment cups.

Garnish with whipped cream & Halloween sprinkles. 

Tips for making great Pudding shots:

  • Don’t add the whipped cream to your pudding shots until you are ready to serve them as it will deflate quickly and the sprinkles will sink. 
  • Use a whisk to mix the RumChata into the pudding to make it blend well.
