Jelly slice
Jelly slice is a delicious Australian and New Zealand dessert made up of multiple layers. It typically consists of a biscuit or cookie base, a layer of creamy filling and a layer of fruit jelly or jello, on top. The dessert is chilled until set, making it perfect for hot summer days or any time you're craving a sweet treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter melted
- 2 cups plain sweet biscuits (like digestives or graham crackers), crushed into fine crumbs
- 1 can condensed milk (14 oz)
- 3 teaspoons gelatin powder
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 3 oz flavored jelly crystals your choice (such as raspberry or lime)
- 1 cup boiling water for the jelly
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and crushed biscuits until they resemble a moist crumb texture. Press this mixture into the base of a greased and lined rectangular baking dish or cups, ensuring it is evenly spread out. Place in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the jelly filling.
- In a separate bowl, mix the condensed milk and gelatin powder until well combined. Set aside for a few minutes to allow the gelatin to soften.
- In another bowl, dissolve the jelly crystals in 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved. Then add 1/2 cup of cold water and stir again.
- Gradually pour the condensed milk and gelatin mixture stirring continuously to combine thoroughly.
- Take the baking dish or cups out of the refrigerator and pour the condensed mixture over the biscuit base. Pour the jelly mixture over the condensed mixture. Gently tap the dish or cups on the counter to remove any air bubbles and ensure the mixture is evenly distributed.
- Place the jelly slice back in the refrigerator and allow it to set for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Once the jelly slice has set, remove it from the baking dish or cups and cut it into squares or serve as individual jelly cups.
