Birthday Cake Jello Shots



Birthday Cake Jello Shots

Original Recipe: http://www.ericasweettooth.com/2011/10/birthday-cake-jello-shots.html

Ingredients:
  • 2/3 cup cream soda
  • 2/3 cup cranberry juice cocktail
  • 1 tbsp heavy cream
  • 2 envelopes plain gelatin*
  • 2/3 cup cake-flavored vodka
  • Few drops food coloring, if desired
  • Whipped cream – fresh or store-bought
  • Sprinkles for garnish


Directions:
  1. Lightly spray the mold with non-stick spray and wipe excess off with a paper towel. Don’t overdo it or the residue will affect the taste of the jello.
  2. Pour the soda, juice, and cream into a medium saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin on top. Allow the gelatin to soak for 2-3 minutes, then begin to heat on low, stirring constantly until gelatin is fully dissolved (about 5 minutes).
  3. Remove saucepan from heat and add vodka and food coloring.
  4. Pour into molds and chill for several hours, or until set.
  5. Remove from mold, top with whipped cream, and enjoy responsibly!

*The original recipe suggests 2-3 envelopes, depending on how long your jello shots will be left out (more gelatin for more time). I opted for 3 because we were traveling an hour to get to the party, but I found them to be a little too firm , so I suggest you stick with 2 and plan accordingly for the best results!
