Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 boxes (3 oz each) Flavored gelatin (assorted colors, e.g., red, green, yellow, blue)
- 2 envelopes (0.25 oz each) Unflavored gelatin
- 1 can (14 oz) Sweetened condensed milk
- 4 cups Hot water
- 1.5 cups Cold water
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Prepare each flavored gelatin (red, green, yellow, blue) separately. Dissolve one box of flavored gelatin in 1 cup of hot water, then stir in 1/2 cup cold water. Pour into individual containers and refrigerate until completely set, about 3-4 hours or overnight.
Once the flavored gelatin is set, cut each one into small cubes and gently mix together in a large bowl. Be careful not to crush or break the cubes.
In a medium bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over 1 cup of cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
Add 1 cup of hot water to the bloomed unflavored gelatin and stir until fully dissolved. Let the mixture cool slightly.
Stir the sweetened condensed milk into the cooled unflavored gelatin mixture. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch pan or mold with non-stick cooking spray.
Gently arrange the flavored gelatin cubes into the prepared pan, distributing the colors evenly.
Carefully pour the sweetened condensed milk mixture over the gelatin cubes, ensuring all pieces are submerged. Use a spatula to gently push any floating cubes back into the mixture.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Once the cake is set, gently loosen the edges with a knife and invert onto a serving platter, or slice directly in the pan.
Cut into squares or desired shapes and serve chilled. Enjoy the colorful and creamy dessert!
