Bing Cherry Jello Mold Recipes

LAYERED BING CHERRY MOLD

Steps:

• Stir boiling water into dry gelatin mix in large bowl at least 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in cold water. Refrigerate about 1-1/4 hours or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Reserve 1-1/2 cups of the gelatin at room temperature.
• Stir cherries into remaining gelatin. Spoon into 6-cup mold sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate 15 min. or until set but not firm (gelatin should stick to finger when touched and should mound). Add whipped topping to reserved 1-1/2 cups gelatin; stir with wire whisk until well blended. Spoon over gelatin layer in mold.
• Refrigerate 4 hours or until firm. Unmold. Store leftover dessert in refrigerator.

BING CHERRY JELLO MOLD

Steps:

• Drain pineapple, drain cherries and save the cherry juice.
• In a saucepan combine the cherry juice with the cola. Heat until boiling, then stir in the gelatin. Mix until gelatin is dissolved.
• Remove from heat and stir in the drained pineapple, drained cherries and pecans if you are using them.
• Spray gelatin mold with cooking spray and pour in the gelatin mixture.
• Refrigerate at least 24 hours before unmolding.

BING CHERRY GELATIN MOLD

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the reserved cherry juice with the cola. Bring to a boil, and stir in the gelatin until dissolved. Remove from the heat, and mix in the drained cherries, drained pineapple, and chopped pecans. Pour mixture into a mold sprayed with non-stick cooking spray, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.

CHERRY-LEMON CREAM JELL-O MOLD

Steps:

• Pour lemon mix into a medium bowl and add 2 cups boiling water. Stir until dissolved, then let cool until warm but not steaming hot, about 10 minutes. Gradually whisk in sour cream until smooth.
• Spray a 10- or 12-cup mold or Bundt pan, preferably nonstick, very lightly with neutral cooking spray. Blot any extra oil with paper towels. Pour in lemon-sour cream mixture and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
• About 15 minutes before lemon-sour cream mixture has set, pour cherry mix into a large bowl and add 2 cups boiling water. Stir until dissolved, then stir in cherry or cranberry juice. Make sure mixture has cooled to lukewarm at most before proceeding.
• When lemon-sour cream mixture is set, gently ladle the cherry mixture over it. Don't pour it on top, as the mixture breaks easily. Refrigerate again until completely set, at least 3 hours or overnight. (If you want to create multiple thinner layers of Jell-O, as seen in the picture here, instead of just one layer of each flavor, see Note.)
• When ready to unmold, run the tip of a sharp knife around the edge of the pan to break the seal. Dip the bottom half of the mold in warm (not hot) water for 15 seconds. Place a serving plate over the top and flip to unmold. (If the mold doesn't come out immediately, don't shake it; try the warm water treatment again, 15 seconds at a time, until it comes out. If you leave the mold in the water for a longer time, it may start to melt.)
• Just before serving, garnish, then slice, using a sharp knife and wiping the blade between slices.

BING CHERRY GELATIN (JELL-O) SALAD

Steps:

• Drain the can of cherries and reserve the juice. Dissolve gelatin in the boiling water. Combine reserved cherry juice, lemon juice and enough cold water to equal one cup and add to gelatin. Refrigerate until slightly set. Add cherries and walnuts and pour into a 4 cup mold. Chill until firm.

BING CHERRY SALAD

Steps:

• Drain the pineapple juice and cherry water into a 2-cup measuring cup. Pour enough color to make 2 cups; discard the remaining soda. Pour the cola mixture into a saucepan.
• Bring the cola mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from heat, then stir in the pineapple, cherries, cream cheese, and cherry gelatin until gelatin dissolves, about 5 minutes. Pour mixture into a mold or glass baking dish. Refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.
