1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (don't get evaporated milk)

Steps:

After the gelatin blooms, add 1 1/2 cup boiling water and dissolve. Add the can of condensed milk. Stir and cool. Pour cooled milk mixture over jello and chill overnight.

Tips:

  • Choose the right gelatin. Powdered gelatin is the best choice for this recipe, as it is more stable and will not clump as easily as granulated gelatin.
  • Bloom the gelatin properly. This means sprinkling the gelatin over cold water and letting it sit for 5 minutes, or until the gelatin has softened and absorbed the water.
  • Use fresh fruit. Fresh fruit will give your jelly a brighter flavor and color.
  • Don't overcook the fruit. Overcooked fruit will lose its flavor and texture.
  • Add the gelatin to the fruit mixture slowly, while stirring constantly. This will help to prevent the gelatin from clumping.
  • Pour the gelatin mixture into a mold and refrigerate until set. This will usually take about 4 hours, or overnight.
  • To serve, unmold the jelly and cut it into slices. You can also garnish it with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Broken Glass Jelly is a beautiful and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect Broken Glass Jelly every time.
