Hello, Fat Tuesday!!
How many people are celebrating Fat Tuesday?? If it's an excuse to eat and drink - then I am IN!
I was thinking about making a King Cake and getting a plastic baby and all of that, but well, to be honest, Mardi Gras snuck up on me this year.
I mean, we just had Valentine's Day AND my daughter's birthday is later this week AND we have a Family trip to Disney World planned AND a hubby and wifey vacation to Napa Valley planned!
It's just too much for a girl to handle!
So I'm going for fast, easy, and "In-The-Spirit-Of" kind of King Cake!
I'm making Jell-o!
3 oz. box of Lime Jell-o + 1 Cup boiling water + 1/2 cup cold water
3 oz. box of Grape Jell-o + 1 Cup boiling water + 1/2 cup cold water
3 oz box of Lemon Jell-o + 1 Cup boiling water + 1/2 cup cold water
1 1/2 cups boiling water
2 packets Knox gelatin
1/2 cup condensed milk
1/2 cup cold water
Make each Jell-o and allow 1 hour to solidify. You can see that I just left them in the measuring cups.
Spray a Bundt Pan with some Pam (or other spray).
Cube up the Jell-o and add to your bundt pan.
Combine boiling water with Knox gelatin and stir to combine. Add condensed milk and stir. Add cold water and stir a bit more.
Slowly pour milk mixture over the Jell-o chunks in the bundt pan. Place the pan back in the fridge and allow 1 - 2 hours to solidify.
Cut and serve!
Have a Great Fat Tuesday, Carnival or Mardi Gras!

Isn't it beautiful?
I think that it is!
Ok, ok... It's just another Stained Glass Jell-o, but come on, it's
"In- The-Spirit-Of" Mardis Gras. That has to count a little bit...

What a fun idea!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe i'm not reading the recipe right..it says condensed milk, knotts gelatin, cold water but nothing about the amount of boiling water to add to the knotts gelatin. Please help..I want to make this yummy looking cake..but confused on water amount for knott gelatin. Thanks
ReplyDeleteSo sorry!! Wow! How could I miss that? I corrected the recipe to add 1 1/2 Cups boiling water to the gelatin. Then add in the condensed milk and extra water.
DeleteFun idea!
ReplyDeleteI love this jello idea! So perfect for Fat Tuesday.
