Jell O Rainbow Cups Recipes

RAINBOW JELL-O SHOT CUPS

Steps:

• For the panna cotta: In a medium saucepan, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water. Let stand until absorbed, about 3 minutes. Place the saucepan over low heat until the gelatin dissolves, about 1 minute. When the gelatin is liquid, whisk in the half-and-half and sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is melted and the mixture is hot and just steaming, about 5 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract and remove from the heat to cool slightly, about 15 minutes.
• Place each color of gelatin in its own medium microwave-safe bowl or 4-cup liquid measuring cup. Add 1 teaspoon of the unflavored gelatin to each; whisk until combined. Pour 1 cup of the boiling water into each container and stir well to dissolve the gelatin. Add 1/4 cup of the vodka to each container. Stir to combine.
• Set an empty 18-count egg carton on a large rimmed baking sheet. Place eight 5-ounce dessert glasses at an angle in the cavities, spacing them apart. Make room in the refrigerator to accommodate the baking sheet.
• Pour 1 tablespoon of the liquid panna cotta in each glass. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Next, pour in about a 1/4-inch layer of the grape gelatin. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Repeat pouring and chilling 1/4-inch layers of the panna cotta, blue raspberry gelatin, more panna cotta, lime gelatin, then panna cotta again, refrigerating each layer for 15 minutes before adding the next. If the colored gelatins begin to set before pouring, microwave each container for 30 seconds and stir well to bring it back to a liquid state.
• Place the dessert glasses upright directly on the baking sheet. The chilled diagonal layers will stay in place. Pour and chill 1/4-inch layers of the lemon, orange, and strawberry gelatin, alternating each color with the panna cotta and finishing with the strawberry gelatin on top. Refrigerate until well set, about 2 hours. Serve well chilled.

RAINBOW JELLO CUPS

Steps:

• For each layer, add 1 cup of boiling water to each package of Jello one at a time. Stir and dissolve Jello.
• Set half of it aside. Using a whisk, stir 1/2 cup sour cream or yogurt into the other half of the Jello.
• Pour the creamy Jello layer into clear plastic cups (I used 7 cups with 5 colors of Jello). To the other half of Jello, add 3 Tbsp. water and set aside.
• When the first layer is set, pour second layer on it. Repeat process for remaining packages of Jello.

RAINBOW LAYERED JELL-O CUPS

Steps:

• Begin by finding a space in your refrigerator for all of your cups to refrigerate. I find it easiest to put the cups on a baking pan to bring them from fridge to counter to make these.
• Add gelatin and 1/2 cup of cold water in a bowl. Let set for 5 minutes. Add 1-1/2 cups boiling water and mix well until dissolved completely. Stir in sweetened condensed milk and mix well. Set aside to cool and make your first color.
• Mix grape jello with 1 cup of boiling water and stir for about 2 minutes or until completely dissolved. Gently pour a small amount into cup. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
• Pour a small amount of white gelatin onto the purple and refrigerate for 15 minutes. While in the refrigerator, prepare your second color. You can let your jello colors sit on the counter for 30 minutes. They will not set up.
• Repeat, layering colors and a white layer, refrigerating each layer for 15 minutes. Use a portion scoop to drizzle the layers. It ends up being about 1 tablespoon for each layer.
• When complete with the red layer, refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Stir the first package of Jello with one cup of boiling water until dissolved.
• Pour half of the mixture into another bowl.
• Whisk in 1/2 cup sour cream into one half of the Jello mixture.
• Pour the creamy Jello layer into 8 clear plastic cups placed on a cookie sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• In the meantime, whisk 3 Tablespoons cold water into the other half of the Jello mixture and set aside on the countertop.
• After the creamy layer of Jello has set up, remove from fridge and pour the other half of the Jello on top.
• Put back in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Repeat for each layer.
• When done, top with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkles.
