2 - boxes cherry Jell-O
2 - boxes orange Jell-O
2 - boxes lemon Jell-O
2 - boxes lime Jell-O
3 - 14 oz. cans of sweetened condensed milk
Before you start, clear enough space in your refrigerator to place a 8
x
13 glass pan on a FLAT surface. It is very important that the space is
FLAT and LEVEL. Prepare the first layer - Dissolve one box of lime
Jell-O with 1 cup of boiling water, stir until all the Jell-O is
dissolved. Add 1/2 cup of condensed milk and stir thoroughly. Pour
the
mixture into the 8 x 13 glass pan SLOWLY. You do not want the Jell-O
to
splash up onto the side of the pan or it will ruin the rainbow effect.
Place the pan in the refrigerator on a level surface. Wait at least
two
hours for the layer to solidify. NOTE - It is important to make sure
the layer is sufficiently solidified, as you will be pouring another
layer of warm Jell-O on top of it, always let it chill for at least two
hours even though it may appear that the layer is done. Prepare the
second layer - Dissolve one box of lime Jell-O with 1 cup of boiling
water, stir until all the Jell-O is dissolved. Add 1/2 cup of cold
water and stir thoroughly. SLOWLY pour the mixture on top of the first
layer. Do not pour all on one spot as you could melt a hole in the
first layer. Place the pan in the refrigerator on a level surface for
at least two hours. You will repeat this process with lemon and then
orange and then cherry - two layers of each flavour, the bottom with
condensed milk the top with cold water. NOTE - this recipe requires
quite a time commitment, at least 16 hours if you
worked straight through, it usually takes 2 days, so be sure to allot
enough time. Also, with the large variety of Jell-O flavors
available now, you could change this recipe by using different
flavors/colours,
