Ingredients
- 4 boxes (3 oz each) Flavored gelatin (assorted colors, e.g., red, green, yellow, blue)
- 2 envelopes (0.25 oz each) Unflavored gelatin
- 1 can (14 oz) Sweetened condensed milk
- 4 cups Hot water
- 1.5 cups Cold water
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Prepare each flavored gelatin (red, green, yellow, blue) separately. Dissolve one box of flavored gelatin in 1 cup of hot water, then stir in 1/2 cup cold water. Pour into individual containers and refrigerate until completely set, about 3-4 hours or overnight.
Step 2
Once the flavored gelatin is set, cut each one into small cubes and gently mix together in a large bowl. Be careful not to crush or break the cubes.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over 1 cup of cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
Step 4
Add 1 cup of hot water to the bloomed unflavored gelatin and stir until fully dissolved. Let the mixture cool slightly.
Step 5
Stir the sweetened condensed milk into the cooled unflavored gelatin mixture. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Step 6
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch pan or mold with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 7
Gently arrange the flavored gelatin cubes into the prepared pan, distributing the colors evenly.
Step 8
Carefully pour the sweetened condensed milk mixture over the gelatin cubes, ensuring all pieces are submerged. Use a spatula to gently push any floating cubes back into the mixture.
Step 9
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Step 10
Once the cake is set, gently loosen the edges with a knife and invert onto a serving platter, or slice directly in the pan.
Step 11
Cut into squares or desired shapes and serve chilled. Enjoy the colorful and creamy dessert!
