We are gearing up for a great July 4th weekend. Here is a twist on an old favorite: Patriotic Jell-O! This is perfect for your holiday cook-outs.
You will need:
1 package cherry Jell-O
1 package blueberry Jell-O
3 packages unflavored gelatin
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
To make:
1. Place 1 package cherry Jell-O and 1 package unflavored gelatin in a small mixing bowl. Pour in 1 cup of boiling water. Whisk together until dissolved.
Pour into 13×9 baking dish and refrigerate for 1 hour.
2. Combine 1 package unflavored gelatin with 1 cup boiling water. Whisk until dissolved. Add 14 oz. sweetened condensed milk and stir. (Its a plus when you get a great little helper in the kitchen!)
Pour the mixture into a measuring cup with a spout. Place the milk mixture in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to cool. (You do not want to pour a hot liquid over the chilled Jell-O or the colors will not stay separate).
3. After the milk mixture is cool, gently pour it over the cherry Jell-O to make the white layer. Place in fridge for one hour to chill.
4. Repeat Step 1 with the blueberry Jell-O, making sure to place the mixture into the fridge to cool before pouring over the white layer.
After the final layer is firm, cut the Jell-O into squares and remove from pan with a spatula. Serve cold or at room temperature.
