Somewhere between cocktail and dessert, this Italian-influenced White Russian is hard to resist. Whipping your cream in a mason jar may be a workout, but cleanup is minimal and the result is well worth the effort. If you don’t feel like making it by hand, swap in store-bought whipped topping instead!
Looking for a festive upgrade? A dash of orange bitters, a pinch of ground cinnamon, or some fresh nutmeg shavings add another dimension to this decadent drink.

- Step 2Fill 2 rocks glasses with ice. Add 2 ounces Kahlua and 2 ounces of rum to each glass, and stir to combine.
- Step 3Using a spoon, divide whipped cream evenly between the glasses, using the back of the spoon to smooth into an even layer that covers the surface of the drink. Dust tops with cocoa powder, garnish with a cookie half, and serve.
