Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 3 oz lime-flavored gelatin
- 1.5 cups boiling water
- 1 cup cold water
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup whipped topping
- nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Lightly coat a 6-cup gelatin mold or bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a medium-sized heatproof bowl, combine the lime-flavored gelatin with 1.5 cups of boiling water. Stir thoroughly for 2-3 minutes until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
Add 1 cup of cold water, lime juice, lime zest, and sugar to the bowl. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the consistency is thick but not fully set (similar to the texture of unbeaten egg whites).
Fold in the fresh blueberries and whipped topping gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the gelatin mixture.
Pour the mixture into the prepared mold, spreading it evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4-6 hours or until fully set.
To unmold, carefully run the tip of a paring knife around the edges of the mold. Submerge the mold in warm water for 10-15 seconds to loosen.
Invert the mold onto a serving plate and gently lift to release the gelatin.
Garnish with extra blueberries or lime wedges if desired before serving. Enjoy your Blueberry Lime Mold chilled for maximum refreshment!
