Looking out my kitchen window I kept admiring these bright yellow flowers that suddenly sprung upward and blossomed. The mere fact that they were yellow prompted me to quickly locate the Lemon flavored package of Jello Gelatin that I had purchased two days earlier. This has to be my fave "quick make" dessert! Simply Delicious! It really is simple to make and is delicious. Two servings of this tasty light creamy dessert does not need a lot of preparation. And ... it's very easy to double the recipe, even triple if needed. :)
The men in my fam have always enjoyed Jello, so I've made this treat for years, doubling the recipe. There are only 3 ingredients! Sweet!
Lemony Simply Delicious - 2 servings
Ingredients:
(1) pkg. small box Lemon flavored Jello Gelatin
(1) Cup Vanilla Ice Cream
(1) Cup boiling water
Method:
- Boil 1 Cup cold water.
- Place contents of 1 small pkg. Lemon flavored Jello Gelatin in medium sized bowl.
- Pour in hot water and stir well to dissolve gelatin.
- Add 1 Cup Vanilla Ice Cream to bowl.
- Whisk or stir well until ice cream melts.
- Pour into 2 dessert dishes or mugs.
- Refrigerate several hours.
- Serve with whipped Cream.
Quite often if I have Strawberry ice cream, I pair it with Strawberry gelatin. Also so light, creamy and delicious!
Looking out my window today the purple Hyacinths are beginning to blossom. Ohhh, I'll be looking for the Black Raspberry ice cream in my freezer and Raspberry gelatin in my pantry. :)
Enjoy!
Yummy!
Happy Easter!!!
There are occasions (like last night) when I'll open our freezer door prepared to make two ice cream cones. Unfortunately, there will only be about 1 cup of ice cream remaining in the container. That is my clue that the next day I will be making Simply Delicious! It's light, it's colorful and it needs only three ingredients. Did I mention easy to prepare? The directions below are for 2 servings, but it can be doubled very easily. :)

Earlier this afternoon I used one small pkg. Raspberry flavored Jello gelatin and 1 Cup of Black Raspberry ice cream. Sweet!
Sometimes, I use Strawberry flavored Jello, Strawberry ice cream and a few defrosted Strawberries.
Life sure is good! Looking out my window at the colorful bouquet of blooming Zinnias eating Raspberry Simply Delicious! Yummy! That was after our visit this afternoon to Stanley Park in Westfield. Stanley Park is a gem in Western MA. Filled with flowers and beautifully landscaped, a stroll through this gorgeous park always offers wonderful gardening ideas. It also has a fountain! :)
Do you have a favorite quick dessert you make during the summer? Do you have a favorite park you visit?
Enjoy!
