Description

A festive and colorful layered jello dessert perfect for Christmas celebrations.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (3 oz) cherry jello
  • 1 box (3 oz) lime jello
  • 2 packets unflavored gelatin
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups boiling water (divided)
  • 1 cup cold water (divided)
  • 0.5 cup cold water (for gelatin bloom)

Instructions

  1. Dissolve the cherry jello in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir well and add 0.5 cup of cold water. Pour into a 9×13 glass dish and refrigerate until set (about 30–45 minutes).
  2. Bloom the unflavored gelatin by sprinkling it over 0.5 cup of cold water. Let sit 5 minutes.
  3. Add 1.5 cups boiling water to the bloomed gelatin and stir to dissolve. Mix in sweetened condensed milk and let cool slightly.
  4. Gently pour the white layer over the set red layer and refrigerate until firm.
  5. Dissolve the lime jello in 1 cup boiling water. Add 0.5 cup cold water. Let it cool slightly.
  6. Pour the green layer on top of the white layer. Refrigerate until fully set, about 1 hour.
  7. Slice into squares and serve chilled.

Notes

  • Allow each layer to set completely before adding the next to ensure clean lines.
  • For a twist, you can use different flavors or colors of jello.
  • Keep the jello chilled until serving to maintain its texture.
