Stained glass Jell-O is a fun, festive treat for holidays and parties. Choose colors to represent the theme! Here I went with red white and blue - great for 4th of July, Bastille Day, or even a brief appearance in the World Cup.

This would be great in colors to represent your school or favorite sports team. I originally saw this idea on the great blog, Just Jenn

Step 1: Ingredients

You can make this with up to 4 different colors/flavors of Jell-O.

4 small boxes (3 oz. each) or 2 large boxes (6 oz. each) of Jell-O or store brand gelatin (I used one box of 6oz. berry blue one 6 oz. box of cherry)
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk (NOT evaporated milk)
2 envelopes unflavored gelatin (the box I used was marked Net Wt. 1 oz - don't know if that means each envelope is one ounce or the entire package is one ounce)
Water

Step 2: Make Jell-os (Jell-oes?)

Dissolve each small box of jello in one cup boiling water - large boxes each get two - in a container. I used 9" square tupperware-type containers for the two large boxes.

Chill at least three hours, until firm. I left them in the refrigerator overnight. They give your fridge a nice fruity scent!

After chilling all of the flavors, cut them into small blocks.

Step 3: Cut It Up

Carefully mix up the cubes of jello in a 9"x13" pan, using your hands to gently toss the colors together.

Step 4: Make Milk Jello

In a separate bowl (larger than the first one I have pictured) measure 1/2 cup cold water. Sprinkle 2 envelopes unflavored gelatin on top. Let the gelatin "bloom" or thicken for a few minutes, and add 1 1/2 (one and a half) cups boiling water and dissolve.

Add the can of condensed milk. Stir and allow to cool to room temperature.

Step 5: Mix It Up

Pour cooled milk mixture over jello. If the milk gelatin isn't cool enough, it will cause the colors to run. Sadness!

Step 6: Cut and Share

Chill overnight, and cut into blocks. The sweet milky gelatin elevates this fruity dessert to new heights. It's time to re-discover jello!

This treat can be kept for up to a week in the refrigerator.

Enjoy!
