                                                  3)  Jell O Art

This Jell-O art is actually an adorable diy recipe that can be done in a short period of time ! They are multiple dazzling colors mixed into a white gelatin base. This stained-glass Jell-O is non-alcoholic, but you can easily modify it by adding whatever amount of vodka you deem fit for your Jell-O concoction—substituting half of the water used with alcohol (tequila with lime Jell-O, vodka with lemon Jell-O) seems to be a safe ratio. The pretty result is worth to try!

Ingredients:

1 ) 4-6 three oz boxes of Jell-o in various colors (use four boxes if you want the top to be smooth.

                             

2 )  One 14 ounce can of sweetened condensed milk

                      

3 ) 2 envelopes of unflavored gelatin  

                                          

                    

4 ) boiling water

                       

Directions:

1 ) Follow instructions on back of Jell-o packages and make your Jell-o. Let sit for several hours in the fridge.

2) Once the Jell-o has set, cut the Jell-o into cubes.

3) Lightly oil a 9″ x 13″ Pyrex baking dish. (I dipped a paper towel in canola oil, and wiped it down.) Place cubes into casserole dish.

4) Repeat with all colors, mixing them in the pattern of your liking.

5) In a separate bowl, sprinkle two envelopes of gelatin into 1/2 a cup of cold water. Let sit for a minute or two.

6) Add 1 1/2 cup boiling water and dissolve. Add the can of condensed milk. Stir and cool. (I set mine in the fridge for 1/2 hour.) Once it has cooled, pour the mixture over your Jell-o cubes. To remove bubbles on the surface, blow on them with a straw. Refrigerate overnight.

7) Once Jell-o is set, use a very sharp knife dipped in HOT water to slice Jell-o into squares.

8) Dip knife into hot water again and cut a thinner horizontal strip. Repeat process until you are done.
