• Refrigerate until set, 4 hours to overnight. Run a knife along the sides of the mold and invert cake onto a plate.

STAINED GLASS JELLO TORTE

Steps:

• For Jello: Make the three kinds of jello, dissolving each in 1 and 1/2 cups hot water. Set into separate square or cake pans, for thin layer of jello and chill until firm, or overnight.
• For Crust: Crush graham crackers. Mix with butter and sugar. Line a spring-form pan or pie dish with mixture. Set aside some of the crumb mixture, this will later be used as a topping. Place the graham crumb base in the fridge so that it starts to harden.
• For Filling: Soften unflavored gelatin in cold water; dissolve in hot pineapple juice. Whip cream, adding sugar and vanilla when almost whipped, while pineapple-gelatin mixture is cooling. When cool, fold into whipped cream.
• Cut flavored jello into small 1/2 inch cubes; fold into filling. Pour into pan over crust and sprinkle with remaining crust mixture. Chill six to eight hours or overnight.

BROKEN GLASS JELLO

Steps:

• Dissolve each box of jello separately, into one cup of hot water. Pour into individual containers (square) and chill overnight.
• Cut flavors of jello into small blocks.
• Mix together carefully in a 9 x 13 inch pan.
• In a separate bowl, dissolve 2 envelopes of unflavored gelatin in 1/4 cup cold water. Add dissolved gelatin to 13/4 cups hot water and condensed milk. Cool.
• Poor cooled milk mixture over jello and chill overnight.

STAINED GLASS JELLO BUNDT

Steps:

• 1. In 4 separate bowls dissolve one 3oz box of jello in ONE cup of boiling water. Pour into containers and chill. I made mine about 8am and by 7pm they were firm. (my containers are 9x6 Rubbermaid)
• 2. After making sure your jello is firm, place 1/2 cup cold water in a medium bowl. Sprinkle your 3 packs of gelatin over the water.
• 3. After the gelatin "blooms" add 1&1/2 cups of boiling water and stir with spoon to dissolve. Then add condensed milk stir and let cool on the counter. I've made this bundt twice. The first time I didn't let it cool enough, so my "glass" melted a bit. Second time I waited a little longer and the mixture was a little lumpy, but after it chilled overnight it looked perfect. Point: Let it cool at least past the lukewarm stage.
• 4. When milk mixture is just about cool enough, carefully lift your jello out of containers and cut into small cubes. Lightly grease your pan with a little canola oil. Being careful again, place your "glass" in pan. Remember, it's Stained Glass. Mix up your colors!
• 5. Gently pour cooled milk mixture over jello. No worries if there are bubbles on top. Cuz that's really the bottom and no ones going to see them! Put in fridge and chill over night. Invert onto a serving plate.
• 6. Note: Even with a light coat of canola oil in the pan I still had to run a thin knife around the edge to kinda loosen it up. My first batch was made in a 9x13 pan. No oil necessary and only use 2 packs of gelatin. With this one you'll want to try and pop most of the bubbles on top. Cuz it's really the top and people are going to see them! They're beautiful.
