Spiked Rainbow Jello Mold
- 4 1/2 cup boiling water
- 6 packages jello desserts in rainbow colors
- 3 envelope plain knox gelatin
- 3 cup flavored vodka
- 1 cup vanilla yogurt
- 2 tbsp vanilla yogurt
- place bottle of vodka in freezer several hours before beginning this recipe!
- lightly spray bundt pan or jello mold with non stick cooking spray.
- wipe off excess spray with a paper towel.
- a slight residue should remain, just enough to help unmold the jello, without affecting the taste or appearance.
- pour 3/4 cup water into a sauce pan and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the plain gelatin.
- Allow gelatin to soak for a minute or two.
- heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved (about 5 minutes).
- wish in the first package of flavored gelatin.
- wish for at least 2 minutes, or until completely dissolved (i find the sugar free mix dissolves much faster than the regular)
- remove from heat.
- add 1/2 cup of the cold vodka and stir to combine.
- pour 3/4 cup of the gelatin into the prepared mold and place in refrigerator.
- allow to set for 20 to 30 minutes, until the jello is a little firm, but still sticks when touched.
- very important - if the layer sets up too much, the next layer wont bond to it.
- refrigerate the remaining gelatin mixture in a bowl for about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites).
- gradually stir in 3 tablespoons of yogurt and stir until well blended.
- this cooling step is also important - the gelatin must be cooled to room temperature before adding on top of the layers or the layers will not be well defined.
- gently spoon the gelatin/yogurt mixture over set gelatin and return to the refrigerator.
- refrigerate about 15 minutes or until gelatin is set but not firm (again, it should stick to your finger when touched).
- as the layers progress, the setting time will become shorter as the gelatin in the pan becomes colder and the layers become thinner as more are added to the mold.
- repeat steps with remaining jello flavors for a total of 12 alternating clear and creamy layers.
- after completing all the layers, refrigerate the jello overnight.
- this will allow the layers to completely bond.
- to unmold, fill a large container or clean sink with warm water.
- with clean fingers, loosen the jello around the edges of the mold.
- next dip the almost to the edge into the warm water for just a few seconds.
- dry the bottom of the mold with a towel and check the edges to see if they are loose.
- if not, repeat the dip process.
- place a plate on top of the mold and invert.
