Yields four shots:

Where To Find Christmas Cookie Ice Cream?
I can tell that the number one most asked question will be “What if I can’t find Christmas cookie ice cream?”
If that’s the case, you can make your own!
Just mix crushed sugar and snickerdoodle cookies into vanilla ice cream with a swirl green icing and red sprinkles.
How To MakeChristmas Cookie Ice Cream Shots
A few things to keep in mind if ice cream shots are new to you, be sure to prep the rims of your shot glasses in advance so that all you have to do is blend and serve when guests arrive.
To make the shots, rim your glasses with white sprinkles by dipping the glasses in simple syrup and then into your sprinkles.
Blend the rest of the ingredients by choosing either the adult or kid friendly version.
And then, pour and serve immediately.
How To Make Mini Christmas Straws
To make the mini straws, simply cut regular paper straws to the appropriate size.
Recipe Variations
- For chocolate mint shots, use mint-flavored Oreos and top with melted mint chocolate.
- For s’more shots, substitute the Oreo cookie for a graham cracker and use regular Hershey’s chocolate bars. Toast marshmallows on sticks over an open flame before assembling the shooters.
- For peanut butter shots, use peanut butter cups in place of the Hershey’s Kisses and top with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
- Biscoff/Speculoos spread is a popular alternative to cream cheese as it is thicker and sweeter. It can also be served frozen (to create a thicker shot).
- Oatmeal raisin cookies work well if you want to go for an “out of the box” version.
- Recipes can also be adapted into larger servings by placing the ingredients into glasses and topping with whipped cream.
- For St. Patrick’s Day, top green-dyed frosting on white chocolate chips. There are endless variations so feel free to experiment!
