Cold wobbly jelly on a hot Christmas Day. It’s festive, summery and very delicious!
Ingredients
- 85g raspberry jelly
- 85g lime jelly
- 2 1/2 cups milk
- 1 tbsp gelatine powder
- 1/2 cup caster sugar
- 200g plain sweet biscuits
- 100g butter, melted
Method
-
Step 1Make up jelly by combining each packet of jelly crystals with 1 cup (250ml) boiling water. Stir to dissolve and then pour into a square or rectangular container. Refrigerate 1 hour to set.
-
Step 2Use cooking spray to grease a rounded ring tin or bundt tin.
-
Step 3Place 2 cups milk in a small saucepan. Sprinkle over gelatine in an even layer. Leave for 5 minutes. Stir over gentle heat until gelatine is fully dissolved, then add sugar and continue stirring. Be careful not to let it boil. When sugar has dissolved, remove from heat and add extra half cup milk. Allow to cool completely.
-
Step 4Cut red and green jelly into cubes. Pour about 1/4 milk mixture into prepared tin. Place several jelly cubes into the milk mixture, distributed evenly around the tin. Continue layering jelly cubes and milk mixture. Refrigerate until milk mixture has set.
-
Step 5Meanwhile, in a food processor, blitz biscuits into a fine crumb. Add melted butter and blitz to combine. Pour biscuit mixture into tin on top of just set jelly. Carefully push down with the base of a flat glass to try and compress the mixture. Refrigerate for a further hour to set completely.
-
Step 6Use the tip of a sharp pointed knife to carefully release the slice at intervals around the tin, including in the centre. Place a large platter upside down over the tin, then quickly invert it. The slice should come straight out onto your serving plate. Slice into wedges to serve.
Recipe Notes
+ 2hrs setting time.
Ensure your milk mixture is completely cool before assembling otherwise the red and jelly cubes will melt into it. You can even do half the mixture with jelly cubes and wait till it has partially set before adding the rest - this will ensure a more even distribution of cubes.
Omit the biscuit base for a jelly-only treat.
