Description

A light and festive dessert made with colorful Jello cubes folded into fluffy whipped cream—perfect for potlucks, summer gatherings, or a fun anytime treat.


Ingredients

1 package (3 oz) flavored Jello (any flavor)

1 cup boiling water

½ cup cold water

1 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled

23 tablespoons powdered sugar (to taste)

Optional: ½ teaspoon vanilla extract or citrus zest for flavor


Instructions

  1. Dissolve Jello powder in boiling water. Stir in cold water.
  2. Pour mixture into a shallow dish and refrigerate until fully set, about 3–4 hours or overnight.
  3. Once set, cut Jello into small cubes and place in a chilled bowl.
  4. In another cold bowl, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar (and vanilla/zest if using) until soft peaks form.
  5. Gently fold most of the whipped cream into the Jello cubes, reserving some for topping.
  6. Spoon into serving glasses or a bowl. Top with reserved whipped cream.
  7. Garnish with fruit, mint, or extra Jello cubes. Serve chilled.

Notes

Use multiple Jello flavors for a rainbow effect.

Mix in fruit like berries or mandarin segments for added flavor.

Swap some cream for whipped coconut cream for dairy-free version.

Add whipped cream cheese for a cheesecake-style variation.

Top with graham cracker crumbs or nuts for crunch.
