Ingredients

• 4 packages (3 oz each) Fruit-flavored gelatin (e.g., strawberry, lime, orange, grape)
• 1 package (0.25 oz) Unflavored gelatin
• 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
• 8 cups Boiling water
• 2 cups Cold water
• 1 tbsp Cooking spray or neutral oil

Directions

Step 1

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a thin layer of neutral oil to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, dissolve one packet of fruit-flavored gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until fully dissolved, then add 1/2 cup of cold water. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly. Place in the refrigerator to set for 30 minutes.

Step 3

While the first layer sets, prepare the creamy white layer. In a separate bowl, dissolve the unflavored gelatin packet in 1/2 cup of cold water and let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom. Add 1/2 cup of boiling water to the bloomed gelatin and stir until dissolved. Mix in the sweetened condensed milk until fully combined.

Step 4

Once the first Jello layer is firm, pour 1 cup of the creamy white mixture gently over the top. Refrigerate for 25-30 minutes until set.

Step 5

Repeat steps 2-4 for the remaining layers, alternating between a fruit-flavored gelatin and the creamy white mixture. Be careful when pouring layers to avoid breaking or mixing the underlying layer. You should end with a Jello layer on top.

Step 6

Once all the layers are assembled and set, cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or until fully firm.

Step 7

When ready to serve, run a knife around the edges of the dish to loosen the dessert. Cut into squares or rectangles and carefully remove them with a spatula. Serve chilled and enjoy the colorful magic!
