This no-bake gelatin cake is a showstopper! It’s as delicious to eat as it is pretty to look at. Cubes of colorful Jell-O are placed into a cake pan and set with white gelatin to create this stained glass cake.
Ingredients
- 5 (3 ounce) packages sweetened gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®), 5 different colors
- 3 ½ cups boiling water, divided
- 3 ½ cups cold water, divided
- cooking spray
- 1 (1 ounce) package unflavored gelatin powder
- 1 (14.1 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 ¼ cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Pour each gelatin mix into a separate bowl. Pour 1/2 cup boiling water into one bowl and stir until gelatin is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes; stir in 1/2 cup cold water. Repeat to dissolve remaining gelatin colors. Refrigerate all bowls until completely set, 4 hours to overnight.
Step 2
Spray a 9-inch cake pan with cooking spray.
Step 3
Remove gelatin from the refrigerator and slice each color into cubes. Transfer cubes to a bowl and gently toss together to mix colors randomly. Tip into the prepared pan.
Step 4
Pour remaining 1 cup cold water into a bowl and sprinkle unflavored gelatin over top; let sit until dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes. Add remaining 1 cup boiling water and stir until gelatin is completely dissolved.
Step 5
Pour condensed milk into a blender. Add cream, unflavored gelatin mixture, and vanilla; blend until well combined. Pour over gelatin cubes in the cake pan. Use a spatula to evenly distribute milk mixture.
Step 6
Refrigerate until set, 4 hours to overnight.
Step 7
Run a knife along the sides of the cake pan and carefully invert cake onto a plate.
Tips
If you don't have powdered gelatin on hand, you can use leaf gelatin. Use the number of leaves needed to set 4 1/2 cups of liquid. Depending on the type of leaf gelatin you have, you will need somewhere around 12 leaves. Follow the package instructions to dissolve the gelatin leaves before adding to the milk and cream mixture.
