How To Make Strawberry Cheesecake Pudding Shots
Bring water to a boil and add strawberry jelly.
Stir until the jelly dissolves and let cool.
When cool, pour in half of the specified amount of vodka.
Pour the jelly into small molds, fill them halfway. Send to the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Mix milk and pudding (according to the instructions, use cold or hot milk).
Stir until it starts to thicken.
When the pudding becomes smooth and thick, add the rest of the vodka and mix.
Send to the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
When the jelly is ready, fill the glasses with the cheesecake pudding.
Chill for about an hour, if desired.
Before serving, you can decorate with whipped cream and slices of frozen or fresh strawberries.
Tips For Making Your Strawberry Pudding Shots Amazing
- It takes a long time to get the mixture to thicken after adding the alcohol if you use a whisk. I definitely suggest a hand mixer to make things much quicker.
- Do not add more than the suggested alcohol or it won’t be thick enough to make layers.
- If your mixture just won’t thicken, add a bit more pudding powder until it reaches the right consistency.
- If your mixture is too thick, you can add some more alcohol, a bit at a time, until it reaches a nice or preferred consistency.
- Do not refrigerate these for longer than a day if serving. They will start to dry out and crack down the sides. These are best served the same day they’re made.
- Do not garnish the shots if you’re going to have them sit in the fridge. You want to garnish them right before serving.
