Scale
- 4 packets of jelly (each a different color)
- 4 cups boiling water (1 cup per jelly flavor)
- 2 sachets gelatin
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 1 1/2 cups boiling water (for the gelatin mix)
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- In four separate bowls, mix each jelly packet with 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until fully dissolved.
- Let all the jelly bowls set in the fridge until firm.
- Once set, cut the jelly into small cubes.
- Lightly spray a jelly or ring mold with non-stick spray.
- Fill it with the mixed jelly cubes.
- In a separate bowl, add the gelatin to ½ cup cold water. Let it sit until spongy.
- Add 1½ cups boiling water to the gelatin and stir until smooth.
- Stir in the can of condensed milk and let the mixture cool completely (don’t rush this or it might melt the jelly cubes).
- Once cool, pour the creamy mixture slowly over the jelly cubes in the mold.
- Refrigerate until fully set, this usually takes about 3 hours.
To serve:
