Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 2 teaspoons Unflavored gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Cold water
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin powder over 1/4 cup of cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk and granulated sugar. Heat the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar is dissolved. Do not let the milk come to a boil.
Step 3
Once the milk is heated, remove it from the heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until it is completely dissolved.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract to the milk mixture and stir to combine.
Step 5
Pour the mixture into a square or rectangular dish (preferably an 8x8-inch dish) for easy slicing later. Let it cool to room temperature before covering it with plastic wrap.
Step 6
Refrigerate the dish for at least 4 hours, or until the mixture is fully set and firm.
Step 7
Once set, gently run a knife along the edges of the dish to release the jellied milk. Carefully invert it onto a cutting board if you want to remove it, or leave it in the dish.
Step 8
Cut the jellied milk into uniform cubes using a sharp knife. Serve chilled and enjoy this fun, wobbly treat.
