We are not big fans of green jello at our house, so I mixed blue and yellow to give us the kelly green we needed. I made the jello according to the package directions, except I added 1/2 cup less cold water than was called for in that step, so that the jello would keep it's shape a little better. You're going to want to let this sit for several hours, so get started early!
Isn't this pretty? You can use all different colors, based on the holiday you are celebrating. Green and red would be a fun addition to a kids' Christmas party, and pink and red would perk up Valentine's Day!
After the jello has set, you're ready to start on the white mixture. All you need is one can of sweetened, condensed milk, 2 envelopes of Knox gelatin, and 2 cups of water. (Divided) Pour your Knox gelatin into 1/2 cup of water and let it sit for 4-5 minutes. Heat 1 1/2 cups water to boiling and add it to the gelatin, stirring until dissolved. Add the can of condensed milk and set aside. Slice your jello into small squares, and pour the white mixture over your squares.
Now it can go back into the fridge until it sets, and you're ready to serve it. This is a great way to get part of your holiday celebration out of the way! I love how it turned out!
