A Fun and Festive Autumn Treat
These jello shots capture the essence of autumn with their caramel apple flavor, making them a unique and tasty choice for any seasonal event. Let’s get started on these easy-to-make and irresistibly tasty treats!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup apple cider
- 2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
- 1/2 cup butterscotch schnapps
- 1/2 cup sour apple schnapps
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce, plus extra for drizzling
- Whipped cream for topping
- Thin apple slices for garnish
Directions:
- In a small saucepan, gently heat the apple cider until it is just about to simmer. Do not let it boil to preserve the fresh flavor of the cider.
- Remove the cider from the heat. Sprinkle the gelatin over the warm cider and let it sit for about 2 minutes to soften.
- Whisk the gelatin into the cider until it is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Stir in the butterscotch schnapps and sour apple schnapps, adding a sweet and tart boozy kick to the mixture. Mix in 1/4 cup of caramel sauce for that classic caramel apple flavor.
- Pour the mixture into small shot glasses or plastic cups, filling them just below the rim to leave room for the toppings.
- Refrigerate the jello shots for at least 4 hours, or until they are fully set and firm to the touch.
- Before serving, top each jello shot with a small dollop of whipped cream, a drizzle of additional caramel sauce, and a thin slice of apple for a festive and attractive presentation.
