Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 oz package red gelatin (strawberry or cherry)

  • 1 cup boiling water (divided)
  • 1 cup cold water (divided)
  • 1 cup milk or heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Dissolve red gelatin in 1/2 cup boiling water. Stir in 1/2 cup cold water. Pour into cups or molds. Refrigerate until set (about 1 hour).
  2. In a separate bowl, mix unflavored gelatin with 1/4 cup cold water. Let sit for 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup boiling water and stir until dissolved.
  3. Combine milk, sugar, and vanilla. Gradually whisk into the unflavored gelatin mixture. Cool slightly, then pour over the red layer. Refrigerate until set (about 1 hour).

  • Chill each layer completely before adding the next one to prevent mixing.
  • For a lighter white layer, use low-fat milk.
