Description
This Creamy Lemon Jello Mold is a light, refreshing dessert with a silky texture and bright citrus flavor. Made with lemon gelatin, cream, and sweetened condensed milk, it’s a perfect make-ahead treat for holidays, parties, or summer gatherings.
Ingredients
- 2 packages lemon flavored gelatin (3 oz / 85 g each)
- 2 cups boiling water (480 ml)
- 1 cup cold water (240 ml)
- 1 cup heavy cream (240 ml)
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk (300 g)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (30 ml)
- 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Instructions
- In a large heatproof bowl, dissolve both packages of lemon gelatin in boiling water. Stir for about 2 minutes until fully dissolved.
- Add cold water and stir to combine.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.
- Gradually whisk the creamy mixture into the gelatin mixture until fully blended and smooth.
- Lightly grease a 6-cup jello mold with neutral oil.
- Pour the mixture into the mold, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
- To unmold, dip the mold briefly in warm water, invert onto a serving plate, and carefully lift the mold.
Notes
- For best flavor, use fresh lemon juice rather than bottled.
- Tap the mold gently on the counter after pouring to release any air bubbles.
- A silicone or plastic mold makes unmolding easier.
