Instructions
- Day 1 — Make the Jell-O Jigglers:
- Dissolve each Jell-O flavor into its own container using one cup of boiling water per flavor.
- Stir each container for 2 minutes.
- Cover and place in the refrigerator; chill overnight.
- Day 2 — Assemble:
- Slice the solidified Jell-O into small squares (about 1" or so).
- Spread the squares into the 16" x 9" container, mixing the colors around. A container with a lid is preferable.
- Dissolve the unflavored gelatin into two cups of hot water.
- Pour in the sweetened condensed milk and whisk together; stir for 2 minutes.
- Pour the milk mixture over the cubed Jell-O so the cubes are fully covered — pouring through a small sieve helps catch any accidental chunks of unflavored gelatin.
- Chill & Serve: Refrigerate overnight or until fully set. Cut into squares, serve, and enjoy!
