Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 ounces Cherry-flavored gelatin
- 3 ounces Lime-flavored gelatin
- 2 packets Unflavored gelatin
- 4 cups Hot water
- 3 cups Cold water
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup Whipped topping
Instructions
Prepare the cherry gelatin by dissolving one packet (3 ounces) in 1 cup of hot water. Stir until completely dissolved, then add 1 cup of cold water. Pour the cherry gelatin mixture into a 9x13 glass dish to create the first layer. Refrigerate for about 45 minutes, or until the layer is set but not firm.
While the cherry layer is setting, prepare the creamy white layer. In a medium bowl, dissolve 1 packet of unflavored gelatin in 1/4 cup of cold water. Let it bloom for 5 minutes. Then, add 3/4 cup of hot water and stir until dissolved. Mix in the sweetened condensed milk and 1 cup of whipped topping until fully combined.
Carefully pour half of the creamy white mixture over the set cherry layer, ensuring it's even. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
Next, prepare the lime gelatin by dissolving one packet (3 ounces) in 1 cup of hot water. Stir until completely dissolved, then add 1 cup of cold water.
Gently pour the lime gelatin mixture over the set creamy white layer. Refrigerate for 45 minutes, or until the layer is set but not firm.
Pour the remaining half of the creamy white mixture over the lime gelatin layer, creating another smooth white layer. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until set.
Once all layers are set, garnish with a dollop of whipped topping on each portion before serving, if desired.
Slice into squares or rectangles for a beautiful presentation and serve chilled.
