Kaylie and I have been having some fun with Valentine's Day coming up! We made these fun treats over the weekend. They are really fun and easy for the kids to help with. It's just a bunch of dumping and stirring. We didn't do the chocolate decoration on the cups but that part looked really easy too. I also doubled the recipe but still did 8 cups so that each cup had more in it! If a video instruction is better for you click the title of the recipe.
Prep Time: 15 minutes Total Time: 4 hours 15 minutes
Makes: 8 servings, 2/3 cup each
1 square Baker's Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate, melted
2 cups boiling water, divided
2 pkg. (4-serving size each) Jell-O Brand Strawberry Flavor Gelatin
1-1/2 cups cold water, divided
ice cubes
1 cup thawed Cool Whip whipped topping
assorted Valentine sprinkles and candies
Draw a design or write a Valentine's Day message in each of eight (6 oz.) clear plastic cups by piping melted chocolate onto inside of each cup. Refrigerate until chocolate is firm.
Stir 1 cup of the boiling water into 1 pkg. of the dry gelatin mix in medium bowl at least 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in 1 cup cold water; pour evenly in to prepared cups. Refrigerate 1 hour or until gelatin is firm.
Later, stir remaining 1 cup boiling water into remaining package of dry gelatin mic in medium bowl at least 2 min. until completely dissolved. Add enough ice to remaining 1/2 cup cold water to measure 1 cup. Add to gelatin; stir until thickened. Stir in whipped topping with wire whisk until well blended. Spoon into prepared cups. Refrigerate 3 hours or until firm. Decorate with sprinkles. Store leftover desserts in refrigereator.
Tip: How to melt chocolate - microwave chocolate in microwavable bow on HIGH 1 min., stirring after 30 seconds. (The square will retain its shape). Stir until chocolate is completely melted.
