Ingredients

• 3 packets flavored gelatin (any flavor)
• 4 packets unflavored gelatin
• 4 cups boiling water
• 1 cup cold water

Directions

Step 1

In a large heatproof mixing bowl, combine all three packets of flavored gelatin and the four packets of unflavored gelatin.

Step 2

Carefully pour in the boiling water while stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Continue mixing until all gelatin is completely dissolved.

Step 3

Add the cold water and stir well to combine. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, about 5-10 minutes.

Step 4

Grease a 9x13-inch glass or non-stick baking dish lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Pour the gelatin mixture into the prepared dish. Use a spatula to smooth the surface evenly if necessary.

Step 6

Place the dish in the refrigerator to set completely, at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

Step 7

Once fully set, remove the pan from the refrigerator and gently loosen the edges with a butter knife or spatula.

Step 8

Cut the gelatin into squares or fun shapes using a knife or cookie cutters as desired.

Step 9

Serve the Finger Jello cold for best taste and texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
