Jello Fruit Snacks

These are seriously easy and yummy! You need a jello mold or silicone mold, and the smaller the mold, the more quantity you'll get.

To start, you'll need:

1/3c. water
1 small (3 oz) package of your favorite flavor of J-E-L-L-O (we used lime)
2- 0.25 envelopes of unflavored gelatin
1 small sauce pan

1: measure water into sauce pan, and sprinkle all the gelatin on top of the water.

2: put the stove heat onto medium heat.

3: Stir until gelatin is completely dissolved.

4: When gelatin is ready, pour into mold.

I used a silicone ice cube tray, and only filled up the bottom.

5: Let the mold sit for about 2 hours.

6: Gently pull the snacks out of the mold.

Serve!

They are slightly sticky, which can be remedied with a light dusting of cornstarch, or leaving them to dry out a bit overnight.

She approves!
