Christmas jello
{Christmas jello}
Summary: Adapted from this idea from Food Librarian
Ingredients
- 1 box (6 oz or 170 g) of Jell-O or store brand “gelatin dessert” in red color (strawberry)
- 1 box (6 oz or 170 g) of Jell-O or store brand “gelatin dessert” in green color (lemon, I had to add a few drops of green colouring)
- 1 big can sweetened condensed milk (740 g, or 26 oz)
- 12 unflavored gelatin sheets (20 g or 0,7 oz powdered gelatin, two sachets)
- some vegetable oil to grease the molds for optimal unmolding
Directions
- For each gelatine flavor, follow the manufacturer’s instructions. In my case, I had to dissolve one box (two sachets) of jello into two cups of boiling water, and then add another two cups of cold water and stir until disolved.
- Pour the jello into a tupper container or a foil disposable mold (grease it for better unmolding) and chill (overnight is best, but 3 hours is enough).
- After chilling the two flavors, cut them into small blocks, and mix them.
- Oil lightly a bundt mold, and place the mixed blocks on it.
- In a separate bowl, place 12 sheets unflavored gelatin into 1 cup cold water. After the gelatin blooms (5 minutes), add 1 cup boiling water and dissolve. Add the can of condensed milk. Stir and cool for at least 15 minutes.
- Pour cooled milk mixture over jello and chill overnight. Unmold and enjoy!

Thank You
Nice. Been a while since I had one of these. We call those cathedral windows here in the Philippines. You have the most interesting tableware in your pics! Where’d you get them?
Looks beautiful! But what are gelatin sheets? I have only found unflavored gelatin in packets. Four packets to a box. Can I use these, if so how many?
I also need to know if you can use the gelatin packets and how many?
So pretty and looks tasty. What are gelatin sheets? I have only found unflavored gelatin in packets. Can I use these, if so how many?
If you follow the link under the picture (Summary: Adapted from this idea from Food Librarian) it takes you to a blog that explains it in American measurements and terms. Also shows other ideas. This is great! So doing this at Christmas!
were do i find the geletin sheets?? i also like other bloggers only find four packets powdered in a box? thanks
6 sheets of gelatin is the equivalent of 3 teaspoons of powdered gelatin or a 10g packet. The original recipe calls for “2 envelopes unflavored gelatin (that Knox stuff)”
My mom makes something very similar with pound cake and the jello. Take 3 different color jellos cut them in squares, mix them with whip cream, pineapple juice and gelatin. Put a layer of jello mixture, a layer of poundcake, a layer of jello mixture, another layer of poundcake, put in fridge to mold and it is oh so good
LOOKED AT THIS RECIPE AND LOOKS VERY GOOD ONLY THING IS HOW MANY RECIPES DO YOU USE TO MAKE THE BUNDT PAN FULL. ACCORDING TO THIS RECIPE IT SEEMS TO NOT MAKE A LOT WITH ONLY 1 CAN OF SWEETENED CONDENCED MILK. THANK YOU!
You are mixing the 1 can of sweetened condensed milk into 2 cups of gelatin mixture (1 cup hot, 1 cup cold water, plus the gelatin).
Is that two boxes of jello of each color or two boxes total? (1 green, 1 red)? Thank you
It looks like two boxes of EACH color, for a total of 4 boxes. Or if you buy a bigger box of each color, 2 little bags of powdered jello. That’s my interpretation…
Se mira deliciosa esta gelatina, la voy a hacer, me gustan sus colores.
