This is a very simple desert that looks like you worked hard to make it... You can proudly serve this to anyone! I make variations of this dessert: By using sugar free Jell-O and low fat and low sugar Cool Whip it becomes a diet / diabetic friendly recipe. Another Thing I sometimes do is place strawberries or other fruits in the bottom of the glass... it gives yet another pretty layer of flavor!

How To Make layered jello

  • 1
    Make the Jell-O according to package directions (minus... 1/4 cup of the cold water).
  • 2
    After the Jell-O is totally disolved and cooled, put it in the blender along with 1/2 cup of Cool Whip. Blend on high for 1 minute. Pour about half of this into pretty glasses. Add more Cool Whip to blender (your judgement). Blend on high for 1 minute. Pour this into the same glasses you put the first half into.
