Totally simple to put together. I got the taller Jello shot cups from party city. Most of what goes in this dessert is simple ingredients like pumpkin puree, instant Jello pudding mix, and milk. Making this a very budget friendly appetizer to serve up.

All About The Pumpkin

My first tip is to buy the large can of pumpkin puree. This just makes more shots and will go further when having a party. However, if you have an instant pot you can make your own puree in this tutorial for instant pumpkin puree.

Ingredients to make the pumpkin pie pudding shots

Nut Free

Nutmeg can surely be added to these but for nut allergies I generally leave it out. I use a little clove and a good amount of cinnamon in these pumpkin pie pudding shots. I also use bailey’s Irish cream in them when it’s an all adult party.

However, you can certainly make some half and half. Just mix the main ingredients then half the amount and mix in the bailey’s. I like to mark the pumpkin shots with cute tags to let them know which is which at my parties.

Mixing in the pumpkin puree with the vanilla pudding

I whisk it in with my oxo whisk that I love to use. Then let it set for about five minutes. Setting the pudding means that it will thicken as it sets. I just whisk it up again after it sets. This is when I add the 1 ounce of bailey’s Irish cream.
