Pour into Mold:
- Carefully pour the mixture into your preferred jello shot molds or small cups. Silicon molds are great for easy removal, but any small, disposable cups will do the trick just as well.

Garnish and Serve:
- Once the jello shots are set and ready, it's time to add a touch of festive flair! Top each shot with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of crushed candy canes. The presentation alone will have your guests in awe!Whipped cream , mini candy canes for garnish, mini chocolate chips
