Jiggling Jellyfish
Turn your gelatin into a fun, jiggly snack!
What you need:
1 package gelatin mix (your favorite flavor)
1 cup hot water
1 cup cold water
small bowls with rounded bottoms or empty margarine tubs
gummy worms
What you do:
Prepare the gelatin as directed. Pour the mix into small bowls and refrigerate until the gelatin is firmly set (at least 4-5 hours). These will be the jellyfishes' bells.
When the gelatin is firm, prepare the jellyfishes' tentacles. For each jellyfish, arrange gummy worms on a plate with the worms radiating outward (see photo).
Loosen the gelatin by dipping the bowl in warm water. You may also need to run a knife around the edges.
Quickly flip the bowl over the plate of worms. Jiggle or tap the bowl until the gelatin falls out.
Enjoy your jiggly snack with a friend!
