How To Make Striped Jell-O Easter Eggs
These creamy Easter eggs are made with only a handful of ingredients. Add some Greek yogurt for a creamy consistency and plastic toy eggs for the mold.
Ingredients
- 2tspoil
- 4Jell-O,boxes in 4 different colors
- boiling water
- 4tbspgreek yogurt
OTHER:
- 10eggs,plastic or egg molds
- empty styrofoam egg tray
- plastic syringe
Instructions
Mold Preparation:
-
On one end of the egg, ensure there is a hole big enough to use for filling the egg.
-
Oil the inside of each egg very well by dipping a paper towel into the oil and making sure the entire inside is covered.
-
Refrigerate about 5 to 10 minutes or until set. This step will block the holes so the Jell-O doesn’t leak out.
Filling the Eggs:
-
Combine 1 box of Jell-O with ½ cup of boiling water. Stir until well dissolved.
-
Using the plastic syringe, fill each egg 1/8 full with your first color. You should have just under ½ cup of jello left over once you’ve done this step. Refrigerate the plastic eggs for about 10 to 15 minutes.
-
Add 1 tablespoon of Greek yogurt to the remaining Jell-O and stir very well. Put this layer over the first layer of Jell-O.
-
Repeat with the remaining colors of Jell-O allowing it to set between each layer. Allow to set 4 hours or overnight.
-
To unmold the Jell-O, run each egg under hot tap water for about 3 to 4 seconds.
-
Gently squeeze the egg and the Jell-O will be released from the mold. If not, gently run it underwater again for a few more seconds.
Recipe Notes
- If your plastic egg has holes on both ends, place a very small spoonful (about 1 teaspoon) in the bottom of the styrofoam egg tray and place your plastic egg in the tray (the jello will be on the outside of the egg).
