Stained Glass Jello





















I don't know why I like Jello desserts so much, but I go through seasonal "addictions" to them. Coffee jello has been my long-standing favorite, but after tasting this, it has some serious competition. And it not only tastes yummy, but it's gorgeous too -- think Christmas!!

Stained Glass Jello

4 small (3 oz) boxes Jello in different colors - I used cherry, orange, lime and "blue"
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 pkg. unflavored gelatin
Boiling water

Now, here's the "hard" part, or at least the most time consuming part:

Dissolve one flavor jello in 1C boiling water. Pour into a 9X9" pan. Chill til firm. (Can freeze for 8-10 minutes or so to speed process, but DO NOT LET FREEZE.) Cut into very small cubes and pour into 9X13" pan that has been sprayed with non-stick butter spray.

Repeat separately with each flavor of Jello.

In a medium bowl, add 1/2 C water and 2 pkgs. unflavored gelatin. Allow to sit a minute or so to thicken. Add 1 1/2 C boiling water and stir to dissolve and then add 1 can sweetened condensed milk. Stir to combine. Refrigerate til cool. Stir and pour over Jello cubes. Refrigerate until firm. Cut into cubes and serve.
