Bon Fire Jello Shots

By á-3948

I found this recipe for "Team Colors" used for the Super Bowl. I was going to a bon fire party so I thought I'd use fire colors. NOW my first batch was orange, red & yellow but I learned a very important lesson the Jello MUST sit over night before you cut it up and add the white. I tried to rush it and as you know rushing jello just means you'll have soup :)

Ingredients

• 4 Cups of Water
• 4 1/2 envelopes Knox gelatin
• 2 3 oz. boxes flavored gelatin dessert
• 2 cups ice cold vodka or rum (separated, and note that flavored liquor is nice but not required)
• 1/2 of a 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk

Preparation

Step 1

Colored jello (I suggest night before):
Pour water into a small saucepan and sprinkle with gelatin. Allow to soak for a minute of two. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved (about 5 minutes).

Pour the flavored gelatin powder into two separate bowls. Divide the hot gelatin mixture and add one part to each bowl. Stir until dissolved. Let cool for a few minutes, then stir in the liquor. Pour into four separate containers to chill - I used four standard 1 lb loaf pans (about 8” x 4”) in order to have relatively symmetrical gelatin blocks. Chill until fully set, several hours or overnight.

White Layer:
Pour water into a medium saucepan and sprinkle with the gelatin. Allow to soak for a minute or two. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved (about 5 minutes). Stir in the can of condensed milk. Set mixture aside to cool to room temperature.
Remove the colored gelatin from the refrigerator and cut into small blocks. Carefully mix the blocks as desired and place in a 9 x 13 glass or non-reactive metal pan (or use two standard 1 lb loaf pans – that’s what I used to make the colors for both Superbowl teams). Return blocks to refrigerator until milk mixture is cool.
Once the milk mixture is cooled, divide equally and pour it over the gelatin blocks. Skim off any small bubbles that form. Chill until fully set, several hours or overnight.

To serve, cut into squares and plate.
(Now the original recipe they had a great tool and cut each in to equal squares I just cut mine up)
