Red White Blue Jello Creme


I have been making this dessert for years, and it never fails to draw praise. while some people look down their noses at jello desserts as being too kitsch, i believe taste comes first. this is light, refreshing, and it makes a beautiful, patriotic presentation. preparation time does not include chilling time, which is at least 3 hours, so plan accordingly. (i usually prepare this the evening before.)

Steps


In a large bowl , dissolve blue jello in 1 cup boiling water.
Stir in 1 cup cold water.
Add blueberries.
Pour into serving bowl.
Refrigerate until firm.
Next , in a saucepan , sprinkle unflavored gelatin over 1 / 2 cup cold water.
Let stand for 1 m inute.
Add the heavy cream and sugar and cook , stirring , over low heat until gelatin and sugar are completely dissolved.
Cool to room temperature.
When cool , whisk in sour cream and vanilla.
Spoon over blue layer and refrigerate until firm.
In a large bowl , dissolve red raspberry jello in 1 cup boiling water.
Stir in 1 cup cold water.
Add raspberries.
Spoon over cream layer.
Chill until set.
Garnish with whipped cream and additional berries.
