How to Make Rainbow Jello: 11 Steps
Rainbow Jello is a delightful and colorful dessert that brightens up any occasion. This eye-catching treat will surely impress your friends and family. Here are 11 steps to help you create this vibrant and tasty delight:
1. Gather your materials: To make Rainbow Jello, you’ll need six different flavors of Jello mix (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple), unflavored gelatin, sweetened condensed milk, boiling water, six mixing bowls, a measuring cup, a whisk, a clear baking dish (9×13-inch), a cooking spray, and a spoon.
2. Prepare the jello mixes separately: Pour each package of Jello mix into its own bowl. Add one cup of boiling water to each bowl and whisk until the jello is fully dissolved.
3. Prepare the milk mixture: In another bowl, dissolve two envelopes of unflavored gelatin in two cups of boiling water. Stir well until fully dissolved. Add one can (14 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk to the gelatin mixture and mix well.
4. Spray your dish: Lightly coat your clear baking dish with cooking spray. This will help release the jello more easily once it’s set.
5. Assemble the rainbow layers: Start by pouring one cup of red Jello into the baking dish. Allow it to set by refrigerating for 15-20 minutes or until slightly firm.
6. Add white layer: After the first layer has set slightly firm but still tacky to touch, pour approximately 1/2 cup of milk mixture on top of it evenly using a spoon to help distribute the mixture without disturbing the bottom layer. refrigerate it for about 15-20 minutes until slightly firm.
7. Continue building layers: Repeat steps 5 and 6 with each remaining color – orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple – in that order. Make sure to allow each layer to set before adding the next one.
8. Set the completed dish: Once you’ve added the last layer, refrigerate your dish for at least 3-4 hours (or overnight) to ensure all layers are fully set and firm.
9. Remove from the dish: Before serving, run a sharp knife around the edges of your baking dish to loosen the jello. Place a large cutting board or serving plate on top of the dish and carefully flip it over to release the jello.
10. Slice and serve: Use a sharp knife to cut Rainbow Jello into desired portions. Serve it chilled on individual plates or as part of a dessert buffet.
11. Enjoy! Your colorful and delectable Rainbow Jello is ready to be savored by everyone.
