Jello?

[SnowAngel]

Who likes jello?

I'm making a huge bowl of it right now. I have even made jello popsticks (freeze the jello with popsticks)

I'm not a fan but my girls love it.. it's so jiggly.

I like it prepared as Knox Blox/"finger jello," but I don't like it prepared any other way.

What is Knox Blox/"finger jello," ?

I use the Jello Easter Egg molds, kind of a tradition here!

I love jell-o and jell-o salad. I just made some yesterday with my son. He loved making it "by himself". I didn't get any though because he ate it all.

It's much stiffer than regular Jello so you can pick it up in your fingers. You do it by adding Knox gelatin - and maybe reducing the water. I used to make them for the kids with just fruit juice - less sugar that way. I'm sure I have a recipe around somewhere if you're interested.

It's usually cut in squares, but some people cut them out in neat shapes like hearts, stars, etc. I have a mold I got ~10 yrs ago that makes them like eggs - not flat at all. Always a favorite around here!

Jell-O you can cut with a knife and eat with your fingers, not a fork or spoon. Made with Knox unflavored gelatin, Jell-O flavored gelatin (I use the sugar free) and boiling water (or juice). Chill in a pan and cut in squares. It's "harder" and "rubbery" for lack of a better way to describe it.

Actually, I should amend my answer. I do like regular raspberry Jell-O if a TON of raspberries are mixed into it (more raspberries than Jell-O).

jello makes really realistic looking hands and brains,,,when prepared wayyyy away from the boxes directions thats what we used to make those items for our haunted house cooking show room

Yuck! Sorry but I hate JELLO. Oh well, I do hear that it makes great brains for Halloween, though.

Piratesmate:
Could you post your recipe for
the fruit juice knox blox? I'd love to make it
that way for DS...

 

[HollyNEd]

Could you possibly post the recipe for the brains jello? We are having a halloween party for the kids next week and that was one thing on my list!

Also count me in as a fan of jello salad! I have a mom who always for family get togethers was incharge of the jello so she had it down to a science There is one she makes every Christmas that is actually one of my all time fave foods it is layered red and green jello with a middle filling of cream cheese and mayo and pecans (I know it sounds weird but trust me it is awesome!).

How about Jell-o cake??? I love that! My fav has to be Yellow cake with strawberry Jell-o and whipped cream on top! YUMMY!!! Try warm Jell-o when you are sick, really helps a nasty throat to feel better.
