Jello might not strike you as the perfect ingredient for making quick desserts because it needs to set. However, there are various desserts you can make with jello if unexpected guests come over and some of them can be ready within an hour. This is good news if you are also making dinner for your guests because the dessert will be ready by the time the entree is over.
Jello has an almost indefinite shelf life, making it ideal to stash in case of last minute dessert emergencies. It also comes in many delicious fruity flavors and you can get sugar free jello, which is fat free and almost calorie free.
JELLO
Small portions of jello set quicker than large jello molds, so you should make individual bowls of jello if you are in a hurry. Speed up the setting process by stirring ice cubes into the jello mixture rather than just cold water.
You can also use jello without dissolving it in liquid, for the fastest jello gelatin results of all. Combine jello powder with cottage cheese or cream cheese, and then stir in nuts, fruit, or marshmallows for a tasty jello salad. This is a dessert, which can be ready instantly or within fifteen minutes if you want to chill it for a bit before serving.
