Seven Layer Jello Salad


Note the unique talent Ken displays mixing the jello!
For 1 9 x 12 inch pan, mix each small package of Jello with 1 cup boiling water and 1/2 cup cold water. (red, orange, yellow, green)

White Layer: Bring 2 cups mild to boil. Add 1 cup white sugar and stir until dissolved. Mix 2 packages unflavored gelatin in 1/2 c cold water. Mix into mild and sugar mixture. Add 1 pint sour cream and 2 tsp. vanilla.

Layering: Pour green jello into pan and set in fridge. Leave other Jellos on counter until ready to use. If they start to set up, place in pan of hot water to melt. When 1st layer is set, spoon 1 1/2 cups of white mixture on top. Return to fridge to set up. Continue with same procedure, alternating jello and white layer.

This recipe came from Helen Joe Stoddard, who was one of my mom's friends when we lived in Illinois, but she moved to Utah and her recipies showed up in the Capitol Hill 1st Ward RS Cookbook. We received the cookbook for a wedding present.
