Notes
Tips:
Some people prefer the 2 ounce cups for jello shots and those work fine, but you will get less shots out of each batch. This recipe is easy to double or triple depending on amount of party guests. You can use flavored vodka if you prefer. I would wait until you are ready to serve before topping with the whipped cream, sprinkles or spiderwebs. These can also be made non-alcoholic by substituting the vodka for water. You can also top these with Halloween sprinkles, fake plastic spiders or gummy worms.
