Penn and Teller Dessert
- 1 x jello red
- 1 x whipped topping, prepared
- 1 x corn syrup, white (karo)
- 1 x red wine dark, or grape juice
- Okay, start off by making some Jell-O, preferably strawberry or cherry or some other flavor that's naturally red.
- But, use two to three times as much Jell-O mix as you normally would, to thicken up the consistency.
- After this is mixed, stir in some cool whip, and pour it into your favorite standard party mold (the dome kind would be good).
- Get a CLEAN plastic bag (inside and out) and place in it some Karo syrup.
- Now add something like a very dark red wine, or grape juice.
- What you want is a semi-thick VERY dark red (opaque) liquid which looks not unlike blood.
- Starting to get the picture yet?
- Okay, now place this bag in the mold, so that the bag is still floating on top.
- Keep in mind that you want the Jell-O plus the bag to completely fill the mold, but have a level surface, as this thing is going to flip over later on.
- Put it in the fridge, and allow it to chill and set.
- When you take it out of the refrigerator, you should decorate it a little.
- Try drizeling some chocolate glaze on top and poping a couple of strawberries or cherries on top of this.
- Allow to set if necessary, and then bring it out to your dinner guests.
- At this point, your dinner guests will probably be oo'ing and ah'ing over this rather nice dessert you've brought out to them.
- Make sure you've got that big pointy butcher knife in one hand as you set this beauty down on the table.
- Now you get to play Norman Bates: cut into the side of this, making sure you go deep enough to cut into the bag real wide.
- As you continue to cut out a piece of the geltin mold, the bag will leak into this, and your bewildered guests will think your dessert is BLEEDING.
- Not to disappoint them, cut out one of these bloody pieces of geletin and plop it down on a plate.
- If you're lucky, it will look like a recently-extracted body organ.
