Rainbow JELL-O Cubes

I made these jello cubes last Sunday for dinner with our kids and grandkids.  Everybody enjoyed it.  It waasn't hard to make, it just took a lot of time because of the wait between layers while they set up.  It comes from the blog: Mom On Time Out. http://www.momontimeout.com/2013/02/rainbow-jell-o-cubes/


Rainbow Jello Cubes

Ingredients
4 packages (3 oz. each) assorted flavors Jello
6 envelopes unflavored gelatin, divided
5 3/4 cups boiling water, divided
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup cold water



Directions
1. Ina small bowl, combine one package flavored gelatin and one envelope unflavored gelatin.  Stir in one cup boiling water until dissolved.  Let mixture cool slightly for 3-5 minutes.
2. Pour mixture into a 13-in x 9-in dish coated with cooking spray.
3. Refrigerate until set but not firm, about 20 minutes.
4. In a small bowl, combine the condensed milk and 1 cup boiling water.
5. In another bowl, sprinkle two envelopes unflavored gelatin over cold water, let stand for 1 minute.  Stir in 3/4 cup boiling water.  Add to sweetened condensed milk mixture.
6. Spoon 1 cup of the creamy gelatin mixture over the first flavored gelatin layer.  Refrigerate until set but not firm, about 25 minutes.
7. Repeat from beginning of recipe twice alternating flavored gelatin with creamy gelatin layers.
8. Make sure to let the dissolved gelatin sit for a few minutes before spooning over previous layer.  This will keep the layers "pure".
9.Chill each layer until set but not firm before spooning the next layer on top.
10. Make final flavored gelatin and spoon over top.
11. Refrigerate for 2 hours after finishing last layer before cutting into 1-in squares.
