Ingredients

Instructions

  • Spray a 8 x 8 pan with non stick cooking spray.
  • Pour the Jell-0 into a large bowl, add 2 cups boiling water and stir until dissolved.
  • Pour into the pan and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
  • In another bowl add 1/4 cup cold water. Sprinkle gelatin packet over top and let stand for several minutes.
  • Stir in 3/4 cups boiling water and sweetened condensed milk until well combined.
  • Allow to cool.
  • Invert red Jell-O pan onto cutting board or wax paper.
  • With a heart cookie cutter, cut hearts out of the jello. Cut as many as you can fit, but you may not use all of them in the next step.
  • Spray the pan with cooking spray again.
  • Arrange the hearts in the pan being careful to leave room for white in between each.
  • Pour condensed milk mixture around the hearts and place in the refrigerator for several hours until firm.
  • Remove from pan and cut into squares.

Notes

If you prefer not to use cookie cutters to cut out the heart shapes, you can pour the Jell-O into a heart-shaped mold instead.
