SEVEN LAYER JELLO
Make this in a clear dish! It is SO pretty and people will be asking how you cut the Jello into such thin and even layers! Cooking time is total time for all the layers to set. Each layer takes about 30-45 minutes to set so it is best to place the white mixture over a pot of hot water to prevent it from getting hard while you are waiting for the Jello to harden.

- Use a variety of colors and flavors: This will make your jello more visually appealing and delicious. Try using a combination of light and dark colors, and sweet and tart flavors.
