Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 oz Raspberry-flavored gelatin (Jello)
- 2 cups Boiling water
- 1 cup Cold water
- 2 cups Vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup Fresh raspberries
- 0.5 cup Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- N/A Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large heatproof mixing bowl, dissolve the raspberry-flavored gelatin in boiling water. Stir continuously until the gelatin is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes.
Add the cold water to the gelatin mixture and stir to combine.
Allow the mixture to cool for 5-7 minutes at room temperature to avoid melting the ice cream too quickly.
Add the vanilla ice cream to the cooled gelatin mixture in small chunks. Stir gently until the ice cream is melted and fully incorporated, creating a creamy texture.
Fold in the fresh raspberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish or a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or until fully set.
Once the salad is set, slice and serve chilled. Optionally, garnish with whipped cream and mint leaves for an elegant presentation.
