In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the orange-flavored gelatin mix in 2 cups of boiling water. Stir thoroughly until the gelatin is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes.
Add 1 cup of cold water to the gelatin mixture and stir to combine.
Let the gelatin mixture cool to room temperature, about 20-25 minutes.
Once the gelatin has cooled, add 2 cups of vanilla ice cream to the bowl. Stir gently with a whisk or a spoon until the ice cream is fully melted and incorporated into the gelatin mixture, creating a creamy consistency.
Pour the mixture into a 9x13-inch dish or individual serving cups, depending on your preference.
Refrigerate the dish for at least 4 hours or until the jello is fully set.
Before serving, optionally garnish with whipped cream and orange slices for a decorative touch.
Serve chilled and enjoy your Creamsicle Jello!
