Steps:
- Make the Berry Blue Jello according to the package instructions. Fill your cups 1/3 full with the Berry Blue Jello (I used about 1/3 cup for my cups).
- Place in fridge for 1 hour (or 10 minutes in the freezer if you're in a hurry).
- Fill cups another 1/3 full with Cool Whip, smoothing out the top. I used about 2 tablespoons for my cups).
- Place in freezer.
- Make Cherry Jello immediately. Let cool in fridge for 20 minutes. You don't want to Jello to solidify at all, you just need it to cool down so you can pour it on top of your Cool Whip without melting it.
- Remove cups from freezer and jello from fridge. Fill the remainder of your cup with red jello (leave a little bit of room at the top).
- Refrigerate for another 20 minutes or just until jello starts to set slightly. Push one maraschino cherry with stem into the red jello, leaving the stem stick out like a little firework.
- Refrigerate for another 30 minutes, or until jello is firm. Enjoy!

RED, WHITE, AND BLUE JELLO
My mom has been making this simple and delicious dessert for years. You can easily make this for other holidays by using different colored gelatins (e.g. try black cherry and orange for Halloween). IMPORTANT: Make sure that the bottom two layers are chilled long enough to become firm and that the top layer is cool before pouring in step 4 or the top layer will go under the cream cheese layer and not make the pretty layered dessert that you want.

RED, WHITE & BLUE JELLO CREME
I have been making this dessert for years, and it never fails to draw praise. While some people look down their noses at Jello desserts as being too kitsch, I believe taste comes first. This is light, refreshing, and it makes a beautiful, patriotic presentation. Preparation time does not include chilling time, which is at least 3 hours, so plan accordingly. (I usually prepare this the evening before.)

Tips:
- Use the right type of jello. For a firm and stable jello creme, use a jello powder that is specifically designed for making creme or mousse. Do not use regular jello powder, as it will not set properly.
- Follow the instructions on the jello package carefully. Each brand of jello powder may have slightly different instructions, so be sure to read and follow them carefully.
- Use cold ingredients. Cold milk and cold water will help the jello creme to set more quickly and smoothly.
- Beat the cream until stiff peaks form. This will help to incorporate air into the creme, making it light and fluffy.
- Layer the jello creme carefully. To create a sharp and clean separation between the colors, pour each layer of jello creme slowly and carefully.
- Chill the jello creme for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the jello creme to set properly and develop its full flavor.
Conclusion:
Red, white, and blue jello creme is a classic dessert that is perfect for any patriotic occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. With its creamy texture, vibrant colors, and sweet flavor, this dessert is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
