Everyone loves jello, right? I put together a layered jello dessert tonight that my mom makes. It's fairly easy to make, just a little time consuming, as you have to wait for each layer to set before adding the next, but boy is it delicious when its all done!
A layer of basic jello mix. One down, 9 more to go!
2nd layer, this is a creamy mixture of sour cream, cool whip, and jello.
3rd layer, basic orange.
5th layer, basic raspberry.
And a look at the final through the purple tinted pan. I'm convinced that my counters and refrigerator are not level, as each time i set the pan down it leans in a different direction! But it looks pretty all the same, try not to pay attention to how uneven and slanted the layers are. I would love to cut into it and show you, but what would they say if I showed up tomorrow with a giant piece missing!
UPDATE: I took a picture of all the pretty colored layers!
Layered Jello Dessert
(I used a square pyrex pan; for a larger pan, you may need to use 2 small boxes or 1 larger box per set.)
For each 4 1/2 serving box of jello, mix 1 package jello with 1 cup hot water.
Split in 2 equal parts, about 3/4 cup in each.
In 1st bowl, stir in a couple ice cubs, and then pour mix into pan. Refridgerate until set, about 20 minutes.
In 2nd bowl, mix in 1 heaping tablespoon of sour cream, and 1 heaping tablespoon of cool whip.
Stir in a couple of icecubs, and pour on the back of a spoon on top of the previous set layer.
Repeat for desired number of layers.
