Dessert Shooter Recipe

JoyJolt sent me these beautiful square martini glasses for Christmas Sweets Week. I know they would be great for a dessert shooter recipe. Fist I thought, maybe I would create a homemade eggnog recipe. However, I really wanted to make an eggnog pudding instead.

Eggnog Desserts

I knew eggnog pudding would be perfect for any eggnog desserts collection. I decided that my eggnog pudding would be better in a layered dessert. What to pair with the eggnog? Gingersnaps! This would be perfect!

 

Gingersnaps

Gingersnaps have a spicy bite to them. If I crush them up and layer them with the eggnog pudding in the JoyJolt glasses, it would make a nice Christmas dessert!

 

Dessert in a Glass

This Christmas dessert is wonderful! This dessert shooter recipe is full of Christmas cheer. Plus using the sprinkles from Sweets and Treats boutique really makes this layered dessert look very festive!
