  • 2 cups Cold water

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the lime-flavored gelatin mix with 2 cups of boiling water. Stir until dissolved.

Step 4

Once the lime gelatin layer is partially set, evenly sprinkle the drained mandarin oranges across the top.

Step 5

Carefully spoon the cooled orange gelatin mixture over the mandarin oranges layer. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes or until partially set.

Step 6

In a medium bowl, combine the crushed pineapple (with its juice) and sour cream. Mix well.

Step 7

Gently fold the mini marshmallows into the pineapple-sour cream mixture.

Step 8

Once the orange layer is partially set, carefully spread the pineapple-sour cream mixture on top, creating the final layer.
