I stumbled upon this Jell-o masterpiece on the web this week and just HAD to try it. I is simply too cool for school!
First, you make small trays of colored Jell-o in a Jiggler consistency. For those of you not down with the jiggle-town, that is two small boxes of Jell-o and two cups of boiling water. We made 5 different colors in disposable 9x9 Hefty baking pans sprayed with Pam.
Once they set, you cut them into cubes. Try to keep the sizes kind of uniform. I didn't do this so well, but with then next batch I will and it will look better.
Toss the cubes together gently and mix them up well. Aren't they spectacular?
Put all of them into a deep pan. Then, make the "cream" Jello- by softening four packs of Knox unflavored gelatin in a cup of cold water and mixing with two cans of sweetened condensed milk and three cups of boiling water. Let it cool down to close to room temp or it will melt the blocks a bit. Then pour it over the blocks and settle any errant ones down by gently shaking the pan a bit.
Let that set for a few hours and BAM! Jell-o magnificence when you slice it into pieces!
It tastes really great but not ice cold. Next batch won't include purple (grape), it just looks too dark. And what about red? How could I forget the red?
