How To Make rainbow cake jello shots

  • 1
    Pour the lemonade into a small saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin on top. Let sit for a couple of minutes to soften.
  • 2
    Heat over a low flame, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes. Make certain gelatin has completely dissolved.
  • 3
    Remove from the heat and, with a whisk, stir in vodka and sweetened condensed milk.
  • 4
    In six small bowls, pour 1/2 cup of mixture into each. Add several drops of food coloring to each until desired color is achieved. (For rainbow, use red, orange, yellow, blue, green and purple.)
  • 5
    Spray silicone mini muffin pans with Pam and then wipe clean with a paper towel.
  • 6
    Spoon 3/4 teaspoon of red into the bottom of each muffin cup. Refrigerate until set but still somewhat sticky. (10-15 minutes). Repeat with remaining colors. These will set up in less time than the red.
  • 7
    Refrigerate overnight. To serve, run a knife or small spatula around the outside of each and pop them out.
  • 8
    Right before serving, garnish with a small dollop of frosting and rainbow sprinkles.
