Creamy Layered Jello (VIDEO)

Some days standing in the kitchen for hours baking a dessert does not sound appealing. Therefore, it’s nice to have a quick backup that’s good, yet quick. This gelatin is amazing and well, no need to slave in the kitchen to prepare it. 🙂 You can change the flavors if you do not like strawberries. You can use cherry gelatin and add fresh cherries to the bottom layer. Or do apricot gelatin and add canned drained apricots (this is my FAVORITE!!). Fruit can be added to the top layer instead of the creamy layer (like in this picture). If I do fruit berries on top I don’t add it to the bottom layer. Kids really enjoy this and adults alike. Enjoy..

Ingredients:

Bottom Layer-

6 oz strawberry gelatin (I use Jell-O brand)

2 cups water

8 oz cool whip

16 oz sour cream

16 oz strawberries (or any other berries if adding to the top layer)

Top layer-

6 oz strawberry gelatin (Jell-O)

4 cups water

Makes: 9×13 glass dish

Directions:

Bring two cups water to boil, add 6 oz gelatin and mix well. Remove from heat, let COOL completely.

Chop your strawberries into desired sizes. Sliced, cubed or quartered. I like larger sizes therefore quarter mine or smaller if strawberries are large. Set aside.

In a bowl combine sour cream and cool whip and beat on medium speed until smooth.  Add the cooled gelatin and mix on medium speed until all the ingredients are incorporated and no white chunks remain.

In a 9×13 glass dish place your strawberries on bottom of dish. Pour the mixture over the strawberries and gently mix. (You can also first pour the mixture then add the strawberries. Your personal preference.)
