Make the Chocolate Layer

In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of milk. Whisk until smooth, then let it sit for about 5 minutes so it thickens slightly. This rich base will remind you of those classic shakes from your childhood—but better because you made it.

Whip Up the Mint Layer

Repeat the process with the mint pudding mix and another 2 cups of milk. For a pop of color worthy of any St Pattys Day party food ideas , stir in a few drops of green food coloring. Don’t be shy—go bold with the hue to channel that iconic shamrock spirit!

Assemble Your Cups

Now comes the fun part: layering! Start with a dollop of chocolate pudding in clear cups or glasses. Follow it with a generous spoonful of mint pudding. Repeat until the cups are filled, creating beautiful stripes reminiscent of a Shamrock Shake Lasagna .

Top It Off

Finish each cup with a swirl of whipped cream and sprinkle chocolate shavings or crushed mint candies on top. Voilà—you’ve got yourself a dessert that looks almost too good to eat. Almost.

Chill Before Serving

Pop the cups in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Not only does this help the flavors meld together, but it also makes them refreshingly cool—a must-have quality for any Saint Patrick’s Day snack .
