looking for a fun retro recipe to make for the 4th of july? please enjoy this flashback friday favorite post from summer 2012, my second post here:
remember jello 1 2 3?
it had a short run & was mysteriously taken off the shelves in the late 60's.
i think it made a brief return years later?
3 layer lime jello 1 2 3 was toxic's absolute favorite food!
i found an attempted recipe online to recreate this perfect summer treat & have tweaked it a bit myself after trial & error to achieve the effect, so here is toxic's recipe if you'd like to try it:
retro 123 jello recipe ~
need:
i used (1) 8 oz tub fat-free cool whip
(1) 6 oz box of berry fusion jello
(you can use any flavor or 2 flavors by substituting 3 oz boxes instead)
water & ice
a blender
prepare normally half a 6 oz box of jello (or (1) 3 oz box) & let it set up in a dish that has room for more layers (1 cup boiling water & 1 cup cold water..)
after that has set up ~
in a blender put the other half box of jello (or another 3 oz box) & add in 1 cup boiling water, pulse a few times until jello dissolves, then add 1 cup ice in water & pulse a few more times until ice melts..
then add in 2/3 of the tub of fat-free cool whip & pulse several times quickly to whip it up.. pour onto the first layer & let set.. it will separate into 2 more layers!
top serving with a dollop of the remaining cool whip..
on the subject of recipes, look in the sidebar for the new album of vintage recipes for children, all photos are from my own vintage golden magazines for boys & girls or jack & jill ~ enjoy!
