I have to admit that I’ve never made this rainbow jello before. I’ve heard it’s kind of tedious, but I do know it’s so yummy! I know my kids would think it was so festive and fun!
The recipe and picture is from My Favorite Recipes. Thanx, Whitney!
Use a 9 x 13 dish.
You will need small boxes of jello (in this order):
lime
lemon
orange
strawberry
cherry
black cherry (purple)
1 1/2 lb. sour cream
Combine one box of jello with 1 1/4 cups boiling water. Divide this mixture in half.
First half, add 1/3 c. sour cream and stir until smooth. Use wire whisk to add sour cream. Mix it gently, being careful no to make it too foamy. Pour your sour cream jello layer into your glass dish and pop any bubbles before putting it into the fridge. Refrigerate 1/2 hour.
For the second half of the jello, add 3 Tbl. of cold water. Carefully spoon onto first layer. Chill 1/2 hour. You will end up repeating this process twelve times–two layers each of six colors of jello. Be careful as you pour on each layer. Remember to check that the dish is level before leaving it to set up.
Top with cool whip and serve to all those little leprechauns at your house!
