I grew up eatting finger jello at many social events and family functions. It was always a treat to find yummy and differently colored shapes to add to my plate!

No matter what you call them, Finger Jello or Jigglers, they are fun to eat!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 3 oz package of your favorite flavored Jell-O
  • 2-1/2 cups boiling water
  • 9"x13" cake pan
  • Cookie cutters
  1. Step 1

    In a medium mixing bowl, place the contents of the package of Jell-O.

  2. Step 2

    Add 2-1/2 cups of boiling water to the powdered Jell-O in the bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Stir until completely dissolved, approximately 3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Place the Jell-O and water mixture into a 9"x13" pan.

  5. Step 5

    Place pan in refrigerator for 2-4 hours or until firm.

  6. Step 6

    Use cookie cutters to remove fun finger Jell-O shapes from the pan. You can also use a knife and cut them into squares, rectangles or diamonds.

  • Can be made with other brands of flavored gelatin ~ however, you will need to experiment with the amount of boiling water to use.
  • Boiling water should not be handled by children.
