Easy, if a little time-consuming! Your children will appreciate the time you spent making this fun dessert!

Ingredients:

Servings: 16

• 3 ounces strawberry Jell-O gelatin dessert
• 3 ounces orange Jell-O
• 3 ounces lemon Jell-O gelatin
• 3 ounces grape Jell-O
• 3 ounces lime Jell-O gelatin
• 6 ¼ cups hot water
• 1 cup sour cream (approximately)

Directions:

1. Dissolve the first box of Jello (we start with Strawberry) with 1 1/4 cups of hot water.
2. Separate 1/2 cup and set aside.
3. Pour the remaining 3/4 cup into an 8 x 8-inch pan.
4. Refrigerate 15-30 minutes~do not allow it to completely set.
5. Add 3 tablespoons of sour cream to the reserved 1/2 cup of Jello, mixing until blended.
6. Gently pour on top of first "almost-set" Jello layer.
7. Again, allow Jello to "almost-set" in the refrigerator, 15-30 minutes.
8. Repeat with remaining four boxes of Jello.
9. I found that I needed to allow the dissolved Jello time to cool before gently pouring on the next layer, or it would break into the "almost-set" layer.
10. Once completed, refrigerate until firm.
11. Cut into squares, 1 x 1-inch or 2 x 2-inch, if desired.
