A delightful layered dessert combining creamy textures with vibrant flavors, perfect for gatherings.
Dissolve the lime-flavored gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water in a mixing bowl.
Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved for a smooth texture.
Whisk in 1/4 of the vanilla ice cream until fully combined.
Use slightly softened ice cream for easier mixing.
Pour the mixture into a clear serving dish and refrigerate until set, about 15 minutes.
Check that the layer is firm before adding the next one.
Repeat the process with the cherry-flavored gelatin and another 1/4 of the vanilla ice cream, layering it on top of the lime layer.
Pour gently to avoid mixing the layers.
Allow the cherry layer to set in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Ensure the layer is completely set before proceeding.
Repeat the process with the orange-flavored gelatin and another 1/4 of the vanilla ice cream, layering it on top of the cherry layer.
Use a spoon to gently spread the mixture for an even layer.
Allow the orange layer to set in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Chill for a bit longer if the layer feels soft.
Repeat the process with the lemon-flavored gelatin and the remaining 1/4 of the vanilla ice cream, layering it on top of the orange layer.
Ensure the final layer is smooth for a polished look.
Refrigerate the entire dish until fully set, about 1 hour.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap to prevent drying out.
Serve chilled, slicing into squares to showcase the layers.
Use a sharp knife for clean cuts and a spatula for easy serving.
