I just like the sound of "Jell-O" more than "gelatin".)

Pineapple Lime Jello Mold

We recently served this at this year's National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation Party and labeled it as Aunt Bethany's Jello Mold.  The first year we had this party, I made a different green jello mold that did not turn out as edible.  I tried to incorporate "cat food" by mixing in Cheerios, but the cereal dissolved into the jello and totally backfired.  This year, I wanted to make something our guests could actually eat and enjoy, but still stick with the green jello mold theme.

How To Make Jello in a Mold

Use a bundt pan to create the mold.  Make sure to spray it with oil first to help with the release once set.  For a sweet and creamy jello mold, we stir in Cool Whip and sour cream.  Miniature marshmallows are added for a fluffy addition.  The marshmallows float to the top of the mold, which becomes the bottom when you invert the set jello on your serving platter.

How to Get Jello Out of a Mold

To help release the jello from its mold, fill a large bowl with hot water then dip the bottom of the bundt pan into the hot water for THREE seconds only.  Use a knife to gently separate the mold from the sides -- just the top portion (which will soon be the bottom).  Place your serving plate upside down over top the bundt pan and quickly flip the jello and plate to release the mold.

Although it only takes about 15 minutes to prep this dish, you need 45 minutes for the gelatin to chill and then it takes about 3-4 hours for the jello mold to set.  It is a perfect party dish to make a few hours ahead and then invert onto your serving plate when the party starts!
