Ingredients
Scale
- green jello
- 1 cup boiling water
- 3.5 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup cold water
- yellow jello
- pink jello
- blue jello
- whipped topping
- pastel nonpareils
- Cadbury mini egg
Instructions
- Line up containers on a baking sheet or other flat, moveable surface.
- In a medium mixing bowl, add the green jello and 1 cup boiling water. Stir until the jello is dissolved.
- Add 3.5 ounces of sweetened condensed milk (¼ of the can) to the bowl and stir until dissolved.
- Add 1 cup cold water to the bowl and stir to combine.
- Pour 1 ounce of the green jello into each container. Place in the fridge for 1 hour or until set.
- Repeat steps 2-5 for the yellow jello, pink jello, and blue jello (in that order). If the jello mixture is too warm, let it cool for 5-10 minutes before layering it on top of the chilled layer, as it could melt it and mix colors.
- Once the final layer is set, top with a dollop of whipped topping using a frosting bag and 1M frosting tip, if desired. Sprinkle with pastel nonpareils and top with a Cadbury mini egg. Enjoy!
Notes
Ensure the jello layers are fully set before adding the next layer to prevent mixing of colors.
For a fun variation, use different flavors of jello matching the colors of Easter.
These treats can be made a day in advance for easy preparation before an event.
