PEEPS® Jello Shots

Lightly coat 4 small pans with cooking spray, and then using a paper towel, wipe them out. This will leave a light residue to help unmold your shots, but won't affect the taste.

Pour 1 cup water into a small saucepan. Sprinkle 4 packets of unflavored gelatin over the top and allow it to soak in a minute or two (it will sort of look like applesauce). Turn on the burner and heat over medium, stirring constantly, until gelatin dissolves (this will only take a couple minutes).

Pour in one can of sweetened condensed milk and thoroughly combine (you will have about 2 cups liquid at this point). Add 1.5 cups marshmallow vodka and 1/2 cup of cold water. (To make stronger shots, you can use up to 2 cups of vodka and omit the additional water). To make non-alcoholic PEEPS®, substitute (more) cold water for the vodka.

Pour 1 cup of the mixture into each pan. Using food coloring, add enough to achieve the desired color. For the pastel pink, I used 2 drops of neon pink food coloring. For the lavender, use 2 drops of neon purple food coloring. For the blue, use 2 drops neon blue food coloring. For the yellow, use regular yellow food coloring (about 6 drops). Stir to thoroughly dye each pan. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

When you're ready to serve, gently use the cookie cutters to cut into PEEPS® shapes and place on a platter.

Using mini chocolate chips, create faces by adding eyes for the chicks and eyes and noses for the bunnies.
