An easy, light and creamy Jell-o treat, good for any time of year. My brother Mark loved it with Orange Jell-o, he said it tasted just like a Creamsicle. My own favorite Jell-o flavor for this recipe is Cranberry, but frankly, every flavor is yummy!
Jell-o Mousse2 (3 oz.) boxes Jell-o (any flavor)
2 cups boiling water
16-18 ice cubes
2 cups whipping cream
3-4 TBSP. powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Pour both boxes of Jell-o into a large bowl. Add the boiling water and stir to dissolve. Stir in the ice cubes, stirring until they are completely melted. Set aside. In a second large bowl, combine the whipping cream and powdered sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Add the vanilla extract and mix. Pour the whipped cream mixture into the bowl of cooled Jell-o and beat with your mixer until well blended. Pour the creamy mixture into an 11x7-inch glass dish (or any 2 quart serving dish) and chill for several hours, preferable overnight. Serve and enjoy :)
