Twelve Layer Jello Salad
From the Kitchen of: Paz
Source: Nadine on Recipe Chat
I have a couple of tips for this recipe. Set a timer for 30 minutes
so you don't forget to add another layer.
Also, when it is finished, place toothpicks evenly spaced over the top
to tent a piece of plastic wrap.
otherwise top dries out, or plastic wrap sticks to the top layer and
pulls it off.
My mother never uses the blue jello because she says it bleeds into the
other
layers, but this recipe never lasts that long at our house, so we go
ahead and use the blue.
6 | boxes | Jello in different colors |
1 | 16 oz container | Sour cream |
- Level your refrigerator. Cool a 9x12 inch pyrex pan in the
refrigerator for about an hour.
- Prepare the first layer: Mix one color jello with 1 cup boiling
water, divide in half.
Add 3 Tablespoons cold water to one half and pour into cooled pan.
Return to refrigerator and let
set for about 1/2 hour.
- Meanwhile, add 1/3 cup sour cream to the other 1/2 of the jello, and
when first layer is set, pour on top.
- Refrigerate until firm, about 1/2 hour.
- Keep adding layers, alternating clear, creamy, clear, creamy.
