Description

A stunning, layered blue gelatin dessert featuring graham cracker sand and gummy sea creatures in clear jars.


Ingredients

Scale

2 packages (3 oz each) Berry Blue flavored gelatin
2 cups boiling water
2 cups cold water (or lemon-lime soda)
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup chocolate pebbles or candy rocks
18 gummy fish or sea creatures
6 sprigs fresh mint (optional)


Instructions

Step 1: Create the 'sand' layer by distributing graham cracker crumbs into the bottom of 6 clear 8oz jars.
Step 2: Dissolve blue gelatin in 2 cups of boiling water, whisking for 2 minutes until clear.
Step 3: Stir in 2 cups of cold water and let the mixture cool to room temperature for 15 minutes.
Step 4: Carefully pour the liquid into jars, filling 1/3 of the way, and refrigerate for 45 minutes until partially set.
Step 5: Use a skewer to place gummy fish and candy rocks into the semi-set gelatin so they appear to be swimming.
Step 6: Top with the remaining blue gelatin and refrigerate for 4 hours until completely firm.
Step 7: Garnish with mint 'seaweed' before serving chilled.

Notes

For extra bubbles in the water, replace cold water with chilled Sprite or 7-Up.
