Jello Roll-Ups

Pin It

OK I'll admit it, I'm a big Jello fan. I can't think of anything that is especially great about Jello, but some days you just need a little Jello to brighten your day.

I love this idea to add a little more fun to my occasional Jello treat so was was excited to see this:

And it was really easy to do.

All you need is 1 package of jello, 1/2 cups of water, 1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows and a little cooking spray.

1. Heat Jello and water for 1 minute in the microwave. Add marshmallows, and heat for another 30-40 seconds until they just start to puff up (my microwave is old so I heated for the full 40 seconds).
2. Whisk  until marshmallows dissolve.
3. Poor into pan that has been coated with cooking spray. Place in fridge and let set.
4. When you remove from the fridge it will be in two layers.
5. Roll (it said to roll tightly, but I'm not sure how tight you can roll something made of Jello) 
6. Cut into slices.
7. And you are done! 

Conclusion:

Overall this worked great and was really easy and quick to do. I found it a little too sweet for me, but I can see how kids would love it. Also, for some reason I made it with watermelon Jello (I'm susceptible to the opinions posted the Pin description) which I am not a big fan of. I will definitely try this again though (maybe with cherry next time).
