How to Make an Oatmeal Cookie Shot
Oatmeal Cookie shots are super easy to make for one or a crowd. You’ll need butterscotch schnapps, cinnamon schnapps, Irish cream, and coffee liqueur.

The only equipment you’ll need is a pair of tall shot glasses, a cocktail shaker, and some ice. Fill the shaker with ice, then add 1 ounce each of the coffee liqueur, Irish cream, butterscotch schnapps, and cinnamon schnapps. Shake to combine, then pour into the shot glasses, filling them to the brim. Voila! You have a tasty Oatmeal Cookie shot for two.
If you want to serve a round of Oatmeal Cookie shots for friends after dinner, this recipe is a piece of cake to scale up. Simply pour 1 oz of each ingredient for every two shots you plan to serve. And don’t worry if you overpour – these yummy slammers go fast, and at least a few of your guests will probably want a second round anyway.
