Deviled Jell-O ® Eggs Ingredients: • Cooking spray • 1 (6 ounce) package flavored Jell-O® mix, any flavor • 1 1/2 cups boiling water • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed • 1 (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar for decorating Directions: 1. Spray 2 egg-shaped gelatin molds with cooking spray. Firmly snap the molds together. 2. Pour gelatin mix in a large heatproof glass measuring cup with a spout; stir in boiling water until gelatin has dissolved. 3. Slowly pour gelatin into prepared molds. 4. Refrigerate molds until gelatin has set, about 3 hours. 5. Unsnap the molds and remove the gelatin eggs; cut each egg in half lengthwise with a sharp paring knife. 6. Mix whipped topping and instant vanilla pudding mix in a bowl until smooth. Scoop the pudding mixture into a piping bag or plastic bag with a snipped corner. 7. Pipe about 1 tablespoon of filling into the middle of each egg half for the "yolk." 8. Sprinkle decorating sugar over each yolk. Chill until ready to serve. Cook's Note: Molds are available from cake decorating and craft stores. Buy a few molds if you plan on making a lot. At the Beach Jell-O ® Treat Ingredients: • 2 (3 ounce) packages berry-flavored gelatin (such as Jell-O® Berry Blue) • 2 cups boiling water • 2 cups cold water • 1 (8 ounce) container whipped topping • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs • 1/4 cup teddy bear-shaped graham snacks, or as needed • Cocktail umbrellas Directions: 1. Stir berry-flavored gelatin and boiling water together in a bowl until gelatin is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Stir in cold water until evenly mixed. Pour gelatin mixture into small cups about 3/4- full. Refrigerate until set, 2 to 3 hours. 2. Fill a plastic bag with whipped topping and cut 1 bottom corner of the bag; pipe whipped topping onto each gelatin cup. Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs onto the whipped topping until fully covered, creating 'sand'. Arrange bear-shaped graham snacks on the 'sand.' Place an umbrella in the sand. Cooks note: Three to four ounce wide mouth cups work the best for this recipe. Putting the whipped topping in a bag and piping it on the Jell-O® makes for a cleaner beach. Topsoil Garden Jell-O ® Ingredients: • 1 (3 ounce) package lime-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®) • 1 (3 ounce) package blueberry-flavored gelatin (such as Jell-O®) • 1 (3 ounce) package cherry-flavored gelatin (such as JELL-O®) • 3 cups boiling water • 3 cups cold water • Fresh flowers for garnish Directions: 1.

Unmold gelatin by dipping bowl in hot water until gelatin loosens; invert bowl over a platter to release. Decorate top of gelatin with gummi worms and flowers. ® 16 • Off icial Kids Mag • MARCH & APRIL 2018
