Ingredients

  • 3 (3 oz.) packages of different JELL-O Flavor Gelatin
  • 4 cups boiling water, divided
  • 5 tsp Knox unflavored gelatin, divided
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  • First layer: Dissolve one package of any flavor jello and 1 teaspoon Knox gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until the powder completely dissolves. Allow the mixture to cool and then pour 2 tablespoons of the mixture into each of the 12 (125 ml) dessert cups. Allow to set in the fridge for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, make the next layer and leave on the counter to cool.
  • Second layer: Dissolve two teaspoons of Knox gelatin powder in ½ cup hot water. Add the condensed milk and additional ½ cup hot water. Let cool and then pour 1 tablespoon of the mixture over the set jello in each 12 dessert cups. Allow to set in the fridge for 20 minutes. Set aside the left-over milk mixture for later use and proceed to make the next layer.
  • Third layer: Repeat step 1.
  • Fourth layer: If the milk mixture starts to solidify, heat it up in the microwave for 25 seconds or until it turns into liquid again. Let cool slightly and then pour 1 tablespoon over the set jello in each of the 12 dessert cups. Allow to set in the fridge for 20 minutes and then proceed to make the last layer.
  • Fifth layer: repeat step 1 and then refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
