Unicorn Ear Directions

Using the 2D icing tip, cut out 36 white round circles.
Using the #2 icing tip, cut out 36 pink round circles.
Using the #2 tip again, cut the pink circle a tad bit smaller.
Using a paintbrush, brush a really small amount of water onto the white circles.
Place the pink circles into the center of the white.
Carefully pick up the white circle and pinch the bottom of the ears.
Set aside and repeat with remaining 35 circles.
Allow to dry for 3 hours.

Pink layer directions

In a medium bowl, stir the pink jello and boiling water until the jello dissolves.
Add the vodka and cold water.
Stir to combine.
Evenly divide this bowl into three smaller bowls.
Add 2 drops of pink food coloring in the bowl for the 3rd (bottom) layer.
Mix well.
Divide this equally into the shot glasses.
Place in the refrigerator to chill for 2 hours.
Add 1 drop of pink food coloring in the 2nd bowl for the 2nd pink layer.
Mix well.
Set aside.
The top layer (the remaining bowl of pink jello stays the same.)

White Layer directions

While your first layer of pink jello is setting, prepare the white layer.
In a separate bowl add the sweetened condensed milk with 1 cup of boiling water.
In a small bowl sprinkle 2 envelopes of unflavored gelatin over 1/2 cup of cold water.
Allow the unflavored gelatin to set for a few minutes.
Add 1/2 cup of boiling water to dissolve the gelatin.
Add this to the milk mixture.
Stir to combine.
Allow to cool to room temperature.
Spoon some of this milk mixture over the bottom layer of pink.
Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Building the rest of the unicorn jello shot

Add the 2nd layer of the pink jello.
Put in the refrigerator to chill for 2 hours.
Check as this layer may harden faster.
Spoon in the 2nd layer of the white milk mixture.
Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Spoon the remaining (last pink bowl) (top layer) of pink for the top layer.
Set in the refrigerator for 2 hours to set.

Whipped Cream Directions

Using a stand mixer, combine all ingredients and mix on medium speed.
Mix until you see stiffed peaks in your whipped cream.
Once the whipped cream is made, split it into 2 bowls.
Add about 2-4 drops of the pink color into 1 bowl.
Leave the second bowl white.
Scoop the white whipped cream into the piping bag with a large star tip.
Scoop the pink whipped cream into the piping bag with a small star tip.
Using the large star tip, pipe a dollop of whipped cream in the top center and along the side.
Using the pink piping bag, pipe dollops of the pink whipped cream randomly into the white to make flowers
Place the unicorn horn into the center of the frosting.
Place one ear on each side.
Enjoy!
