Rainbow Jello

Layers of rainbow colored Jello and condensed milk Jello create a fun and playful dessert. You do not need to make rainbow colors. You could make any colors you would like. For instance, red, white and blue for the 4th of July.

You can add a shot of liquer to the condensed milk layer for an adult dessert. For instance, Irish cream if making alternating green layers for Saint Patty’s Day.

Cut this Jello into squares and serve them on a platter or cube it up small and serve individual parfaits of Jello and homemade whipped cream. Either way, you can’t go wrong with this playful dessert!

Note: Read all recipe directions before beginning. This recipe is not difficult but it does have quite a few steps. Allow yourself at least 5 hours of inactive time to make the Jello layers plus more for chilling.

1 small 3 oz box strawberry Jello
1 small 3 oz box orange Jello
1 small 3 oz box lemon Jello
1 small 3 oz box lime Jello
1 small 3 oz box berry blue Jello
1 box (4 packages) Knox unflavored gelatin
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
sweetened whipped cream, for serving

Set aside a 9x13” glass baking dish. Ungreased.

Red Layer: Mix 1 package of Strawberry Jello with 1 tsp Knox gelatin and 1 cup boiling water. Cool and pour into pan; refrigerate 30 minutes until set.

IMPORTANT: While each layer sets in the refrigerator, make the next layer and leave it to cool on the countertop so that it is not hot when ready to pour onto the previous layer. This will insure that your layers do not bleed together.

White Layer: Mix 1 envelope Knox gelatin with ½ cup hot water until dissolved. Add 7 oz of condensed milk (½ of a can) and an additional ½ cup hot water. Once cooled pour half of the milk mixture over the set red Jello and refrigerate 30 minutes until firm. As soon as you put the milk layer in the fridge, make the Orange Jello so that it will have time to cool on the counter.

Orange Layer: Mix 1 package of Orange Jello with 1 tsp Knox gelatin and 1 cup boiling water. Cool and pour over milk layer, refrigerate 30 minutes until set. Note: The next milk layer is already made so no need to mix any Jello during this 30 minutes.

White Layer: Pour the remaining milk mixture over the set orange Jello and refrigerate 30 minutes until set. As soon as you put the milk layer in the fridge, make the lemon Jello.

Yellow Layer: Mix 1 package of Lemon Jello with 1 tsp Knox gelatin and 1 cup boiling water. Cool and pour over the milk layer, refrigerate 30 minutes until set. As soon as you put the lemon layer in the fridge, make another batch of the milk Jello. Mix 1 envelope Knox gelatin with ½ cup hot water until dissolved. Add 7 oz of condensed milk (½ of a can) and an additional ½ cup hot water. Allow to cool on the counter while lemon layer sets.

Milk Layer: Pour ¾ cup of the milk mixture over the set yellow Jello and refrigerate until firm, 30 minutes. As soon as you put the milk layer in the fridge, make the Lime Jello so that it will have time to cool on the counter.

Green Layer: Mix 1 package of Lime Jello with 1 tsp Knox gelatin and 1 cup boiling water. Cool and pour over previous layer, refrigerate 30 minutes until set. Note: The next milk layer is already made so no need to mix any Jello during this 30 minutes.

Milk Layer: Pour half of the milk mixture over the set green Jello and refrigerate until firm, 30 minutes. As soon as you put the milk layer in the fridge, make the Berry Blue Jello so that it will have time to cool on the counter.

Blue Layer: Mix 1 package of Berry Blue Jello with 1 tsp Knox gelatin and 1 cup boiling water. Cool and pour over milk layer, refrigerate 30 minutes until set.

Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least one additional hour before slicing and serving. Serve with homemade sweetened whipped cream.
