Christmas Jello Recipes

CHRISTMAS LAYERED JELLO

Steps:

• Spray silicone molds or a 9 x 13 inch pan with nonstick spray. Place molds on a cookie sheet.
• Microwave 2 cups of water until boiling.
• Place red jello in a mixing bowl, then pour boiling water over jello and stir to dissolve. (Or you can start with green...start with whatever color you want on top.)
• Pour a thin layer over the bottom of the mold or pan. Place in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes until jello is set.
• Boil another 1 ½ cups water. Place both envelopes of unflavored gelatin in a bowl, pour ½ cup cold water over the gelatin and stir until dissolved. Add the condensed milk and stir to combine. Add the 1 ½ cups boiling water over the milk and mix. Pour a thin layer over the red layer and return to the refrigerator for another 10-15 minutes.
• Microwave another 2 cups of water till boiling.
• Place green jello in a mixing bowl, then pour boiling water over the jello and stir to dissolve.
• Pour a thin layer of green over the white layer, then return to the refrigerator till set for about 15 minutes.
• Pour another layer of white over the green and return to the refrigerator for another 15 minutes.
• Continue till you have all layers: Red, white, green, white, red, white, green, white, red.
• If jello starts to gel in the bowl, heat for 10 to 15 seconds and stir well.
• If you are using small silicone layers, you may want to just do three layers, red, white and green.
• Refrigerate for an additional 2 hours so it will be totally set up. Unmold, or cut into small squares.
• Serve with whipped cream.
