Tools and Ingredients for Jello Jigglers

Summer is all about having fun, being outside and just enjoying the warm weather. You don’t want to be stuck in your kitchen making complicated recipes! That is just another reason why I love making jello jigglers- they are so simple! You can make this entire jell-o jigglers recipe in just 5 minutes!

Here is a quick look at what you will need to grab at the grocery store to make these Jello Jigglers recipe:

• Jell-o– Choose any flavor you’d like! You can even use sugar free jello if needed. For my red, white and blue jello, I used berry blue flavor and raspberry. Strawberry or cherry jello will work too!
• unflavored gelatin– Unflavored gelatin is what will make this jello extra jiggly. It will also help the jello be more firm, allowing it to slice easily and hold it’s shape.
• boiling water– Boiling water dissolves the jello completely. You want to be sure all the jello and gelatin are completely dissolved.
• whipped cream– White whipped cream is the perfect finishing touch for this jello jigglers recipe. It not only adds a creamy flavor, but also makes the jello look picture perfect.
• sprinkles– Sprinkles are always a good idea for summer desserts. I mentioned before that jello jigglers remind me of summers as a kid and sprinkles do the same. We all remember ice cream and desserts covered with sprinkles in the summer. So for me, sprinkles are required!
