Servings: 5 +
Equipment
- 6-cup Plastic Brain Mold (or silicone)
Ingredients
- 2 (6 oz) pkgs Flavored Gelatin (such as Jell-O®)
- 1 ¾ cups Boiling Water
- ⅔ cup Cold Water
- 1 (12 oz) can Evaporated Milk (fat free, if possible)
Optional
- Food Coloring
Instructions
Prep
- If you have a brand new brain mold, wash it in warm soapy water and then rinse & dry it thoroughly.
- Start your water boiling.
- Spray the inside of the brain mold with cooking spray. Stabilize the brain mold in a bowl so it doesn't tip over. Set aside.
Make the Jello Mixture
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the Jello in the boiling water. Whisk until completely dissolved.
- Pour in the cold water, stir.
- Pour in the evaporated milk. Stir well.
Optional Coloring Step
- If you are using food coloring, add it now and whisk well.
Add to the Mold
- Then pour the mixture into the brain mold.
Chill
- Place in the fridge and chill until set, at least 2 hours.
Serve
- To release the Jello brain from the mold, gently shake it to loosen it before inverting it onto a plate. It should plop down onto the plate. If not, shake it again and invert again.
Notes
Make-Ahead
