I love Jell-O, and I love buttermilk. But both can get boring separately. So, just yesterday I thought, "hmm... I wonder what would happen if I used buttermilk instead of cold water?" And voila! Jell-O Fluff was born! Using sugar-free Jell-O, each is about 50 calories. The photo is made with 1:1 water to buttermilk. For a taller clear layer, use more water and less buttermilk, but always keep to the total liquid volume called for by the Jell-O package. Keep in mind, using less buttermilk = a thinner froth layer. (If using juice, don't use citrus, as this breaks down the gelatin.)

How To Make jell-o fluff

  • Step 1
    Boil water or juice and pour it into a blender to the 2 cup mark.
  • Step 2
    Put the lid on the blender and start it on the lowest speed.
  • Step 3
    Open the lid and pour in the Jell-O and/or gelatin.
  • Step 4
    Blend about half a minute until completely dissolved.
  • Step 5
    Pour in the cold buttermilk and blend until the froth starts to hit the lid - just about half a minute or so.
  • Step 6
    Immediately pour into tall wine or champagne glasses, cover with plastic wrap to discourage evaporation, then refrigerate 4 hours.
  • Step 7
    Serve with berries and whipped cream if desired.
