Easy Rainbow Jello Food

LAYERED RAINBOW JELLO

Steps:

• Bottom (purple) layer: Dissolve a 3-ounce package of grape flavored jello with 1 teaspoon of unflavored gelatin (1/2 envelope of Knox unflavored gelatin) in 1 cup of boiling water by stirring until completely dissolved. Pour into a 9x13-inch pan and transfer to the refrigerator. Make sure the pan is sitting completely flat. Chill until completely set, about 30 minutes.
• Second (white) layer: Make this layer at the same time as the bottom layer. Stir 2 teaspoons (1 envelope) of Knox unflavored gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water until dissolved. Add 1/2 can of sweetened condensed milk and stir until combined. Let this sit out on the counter until cooled to room temperature, but not yet set while the previous layer sets up in the fridge.
• Once the first colored layer has set, make the next colored layer (berry blue) following the directions in Step 1 so it can start to cool. Then pour 3/4 cup of the white jello mixture over the colored layer and gently tilt the pan side to side for even distribution. Return jello to the refrigerator to set up, which takes about 20 minutes.
• Continue to make layers following steps 1 & 2, alternating flavored colorful layers (the next colors in rainbow order are green, yellow, orange, and red) with the creamy white layers, letting the jello set between each addition until all of the jello has been used up. You will need to make the white layer a couple of times because even without refrigeration it will set up on the counter if you make it all at once.
• Once the jello is completely set, slice into 1-inch squares using a paring knife (not a serrated blade which leaves marks in the jello) and serve. A small spatula will help you get the jello cubes out of the pan.

EASY RAINBOW JELLO RECIPE

Steps:

• Follow the directions on the box of red Jell-O
• I used the "quicker method" the box refers to, using ice to speed up the process
• Pour a small amount of the liquid into each cup
• Refrigerate until it has set completely
• Continue with the next color of the rainbow
• Add a small amount on top of your first color
• Refrigerate until it has set and then repeat each step again until you have used every color of the rainbow
• Once all your layers are looking pretty, add some whipped cream and sprinkles!

RAINBOW JELL-O

Steps:

• Dissolve the first box of Jello (we start with Strawberry) with 1 1/4 cups of hot water.
• Separate 1/2 cup and set aside.
• Pour the remaining 3/4 cup into an 8 x 8-inch pan.
• Refrigerate 15-30 minutes~do not allow it to completely set.
• Add 3 tablespoons of sour cream to the reserved 1/2 cup of Jello, mixing until blended.
• Gently pour on top of first "almost-set" Jello layer.
• Again, allow Jello to "almost-set" in the refrigerator, 15-30 minutes.
• Repeat with remaining four boxes of Jello.
• I found that I needed to allow the dissolved Jello time to cool before gently pouring on the next layer, or it would break into the "almost-set" layer.
• Once completed, refrigerate until firm.
• Cut into squares, 1 x 1-inch or 2 x 2-inch, if desired.

RAINBOW JELLO

Steps:

• You can use any variety of jello you want and as many as you want.
• Use 1 box of lemon jello with 3/4 cup boiling water and 3/4 cup cold water.
• Mix well and pour into a 9x13 tupperware container.
• Let set a little awhile.
• The next layer consists of the other box of lemon jello, but this time combine 3/4 cup boiling water and let that sit for awhile and when a little cool, add 3/4 cup evaporated milk and mix together and pour onto the 1st layer in tupperware pan (that gives it a slightly different color and taste).
• Continue with the other colors of jello you want.
• Kids love it.
