Rainbow Jello Mold Recipes

Steps:

• Stir 1-1/4 cups boiling water into 1 pkg. gelatin in small bowl at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Pour 3/4 cup of the dissolved gelatin into 8-cup ring mold sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate about 15 minutes or until set but not firm (gelatin should stick to finger when touched). Refrigerate remaining gelatin in bowl about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Gradually stir in 3 Tbsp. of the sour cream. Spoon over gelatin in pan. Refrigerate about 15 minutes or until gelatin is set but not firm (gelatin should stick to finger when touched).
• Repeat process with each remaining gelatin flavor. (Be sure to cool dissolved gelatin to room temperature before pouring into mold.) Refrigerate gelatin as directed to create a total of 10 alternating clear and creamy gelatin layers.
• Refrigerate 2 hours or until firm. Unmold. Cut into 16 slices to serve. Store leftover gelatin in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Add 3/4 cup boiling water to raspberry gelatin mix in medium bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Refrigerate 15 min. or until cooled. Whisk in 3/4 cup yogurt until blended. Pour into 9x5-inch loaf pan sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate 30 min. or until gelatin is set but not firm.
• Repeat with remaining gelatin mix flavors to make a total of 4 layers in loaf pan. Refrigerate 2 hours or until firm.

Steps:

• 1. OPTIONAL...If using, place the bottle of vodka or rum in the freezer for several hours before beginning this recipe, to ensure potency...remember, this is OPTIONAL...blueberry vodka is recommended.
• 2. Lightly spray bundt pan or gelatin mold with non-stick cooking spray. Wipe off the excess spray with a paper towel. A slight residue should remain, just enough to help unmold your gelatin, without affecting the taste or appearance.
• 3. Pour 3/4 cup water into a saucepan and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the plain gelatin. Allow gelatin to soak for a minute or two. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved (about 5 minutes). Wisk in the first package of flavored gelatin. Whisk for at least 2 minutes, or until completely dissolved.
• 4. OPTIONAL...Remove from heat. Add 1/2 cup of the cold liquor, and stir to combine.
• 5. Pour 3/4 cup of the gelatin mixture into the prepared mold, and place in refrigerator. Allow to set for 20 to 30 minutes, until the gelatin is a little firm, but still sticks when touched. Very important - if the layers set up too much, the next layer won't bond appropriately.
• 6. Refrigerate the remaining gelatin mixture in bowl about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Gradually stir in 3 tablespoons of yogurt and stir until well blended. This cooling step is also important - the gelatin must be cooled to room temperature before adding on top of other layers, or the layers will not be well defined.
• 7. Gently spoon the gelatin/yogurt mixture over set gelatin and return to the refrigerator. Refrigerate about 15 minutes or until gelatin is set but not firm (again, it should stick to finger when touched). As the layers progress, the setting time will become shorter as the pan and gelatin becomes colder, and the layers become thinner as more layers are added to the mold.
• 8. Repeat steps with remaining gelatin flavors, for a total of 12 alternating clear and creamy gelatin layers.
• 9. After completing all the layers, refrigerate the gelatin overnight. This will allow the layers to fully bond.
• 10. To unmold, fill a larger container or clean sink with warm water (not too hot). With clean fingers, loosen the gelatin around the edges of the mold cavity. Next, dip the mold, almost to the edge, into the warm water for just a few seconds (10 seconds worked for me). Dry the bottom of the mold with a towel and check the edges to see if they are loose, if not, repeat the dip for just a few seconds. Place your serving plate on top of the mold and invert.

Steps:

• 1. PLEASE NOTE IN INGREDIENTS I LISTED 5-6 BOXES OF JELLO. IF YOUR FIRST COLOR COVERS THE BOTTOM OF YOUR MOLD AS DEEP AS YOU WANT, YOU WILL ONLY NEED FIVE BOXES OF ASSORTED COLORS. IF IT DOES NOT COVER THE BOTTOM OF THE MOLD - YOU WILL NEED 2 BOXES OF YOUR FIRST COLOR. HOPE THAT MAKES SENSE.
• 2. Dissolve one box of Jello in 1 cup boiling water. Divide it into 2 containers. Add 1/3 cup sour cream to one container and set it aside on counter, not in the fridge.
• 3. Pour the remaining container of plain Jello into the mold.(I used a bundt pan sprayed with Pam). Make sure this layer covers the bottom, if not - use the additional box mentioned above.
• 4. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes (make sure it is level). When it is set, pour the remaining 1/2 of the same Jello color (with the sour cream added) over the plain layer in the mold. Pour (Very Carefully) so as to not disturb the set Jello. Put back into freezer for 30 mins to chill.
• 5. Repeat above steps with remaining colors of Jello until complete. (Optional: Top with a very thin layer of Whip Cream Topping.) I suggest leaving it in the fridge overnight before unmolding.
• 6. Carefully invert the mold onto serving platter. If it does not fall out immediately, dip the mold in warm water.
• 7. Serving Tip: Cut the unmolded Jello with a knife dipped in warm water for each slice.

Steps:

• This is a real make ahead dessert! Plan on it taking about 3 hours to make, the day before you need it. It only takes a few minutes every 20 minutes or so, but you can't let a layer set for hours before adding the next one, or you risk the layers sliding apart after unmolding. And, you want the finished mold to set up at least over night.
• Lightly spray a bundt pan or 9x13 pan with non stick spray.
• Wisk 1 package of jello into 1-1/4 cups boiling water in a small bowl at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved.
• Pour 3/4 cup of the dissolved gelatin into 8-cup ring mold sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate about 15 minutes or until set but not firm. (It should stick to finger when touched). By placing it onto a level surface in your freezer you can speed up the process.
• Refrigerate remaining jello in bowl about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Gradually stir in 3 tablespoons of the coconut milk and stir until well blended.
• Spoon over jello in pan.
• Refrigerate about 15 minutes or until gelatin is set but not firm (Again, jello should stick to finger when touched and By placing it onto a level surface in your freezer you can speed up the process.)
• REPEAT process with each remaining jello flavor.
• ***It is very important to cool dissolved gelatin to room temperature before pouring into mold or the layers will not be well defined-but it will still taste good :)***.
• Repeat steps again for a total of 10 alternating clear and creamy gelatin layers.
• Refrigerate at least 2 hours or until firm. Unmold. For best results, unmold just before serving. Fill a larger container or clean sink with warm water, not too hot (otherwise it will melt). Rub a few drops of water onto the serving plate, this will facilitate adjusting the mold after unmolding, if necessary. Either use a plate with a large lip and just a little bit bigger than the diameter of the mold, or use a larger platter, at least 2-3 inches larger than the mold, because it will spread when unmolded and cut. Dip the mold almost to the edge into the warm water for just a few seconds. Wipe off with a towel and check the edges to see if they are loose, if not, repeat the dip for just a few seconds. Invert serving plate on top and flip quickly. Cut into 16 slices to serve. Store leftover gelatin in refrigerator.
• This can be adapted easily for team colours, wedding shower colours, or even a patriotic mold. To create the colour white, simply use knox gelatin with the coconut milk.
