CHUNKS OF GLASS JELLO
The kids love this one. You could also make this in a jello mold-buttered and dusted with graham cracker crumbs if you want a fancier presentation. This is visually appealing, especially to kids! Obviously the jello flavors are interchangable; if you want you could use pineapple jello with pineapple juice for the creamy mixture.
