Ingredients
Scale
Gelatin Layers
- 4 (3 oz) Jello packages: Grape, Blue Raspberry, Lime, Watermelon
- 3 cups boiling water, divided
- 1 cup sweet cream coffee creamer, divided
- 2 cups fat-free vanilla yogurt, divided
Toppings
- Whipped cream, for topping
- Sprinkles, for garnish
- Twisty lollipops, for garnish (unicorn horns)
Instructions
- Dissolve the first Jello layer: In a medium bowl, combine the grape Jello package with 3/4 cup boiling water. Whisk thoroughly until all gelatin crystals are dissolved.
- Cool the mixture: Refrigerate the bowl until the mixture cools to room temperature, approximately 20-30 minutes. This prevents the yogurt from curdling when mixed.
- Add creamy ingredients: Stir in 1/4 cup sweet cream coffee creamer and 1/2 cup fat-free vanilla yogurt. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Assemble the layer: Spoon the prepared Jello mixture evenly into each serving glass. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to allow the layer to set.
- Repeat for remaining flavors: Follow steps 1 through 4 for the Blue Raspberry, Lime, and Watermelon Jello flavors, preparing each layer separately and allowing each to set in the fridge before adding the next.
- Final setting: After all four layers have been added to the glasses, place them into the refrigerator for a minimum of 3 hours to ensure the entire Jello cups are fully set.
- Add toppings: Right before serving, top each cup with a generous swirl of whipped cream, sprinkle colorful sprinkles on top, and finish by inserting a twisty lollipop to resemble a unicorn horn.
Notes
- Store the Unicorn Jello Cups in the refrigerator until ready to serve to maintain their shape and freshness.
- These cups were made in large 8-ounce glasses. You may use smaller glasses or plastic cups; keep the ingredient quantities the same for consistent layering.
