Rainbow Jello Mold

For my Dad's party, the decor and the food are all going to be brightly colored.  As much as possible.  So I practiced making this jello mold and it didn't come out to badly for a first shot.  I need to do it a bit slower I think and find a darker green and brighter yellow.

It was really easy.  Just spray your mold lightly with cooking spray.  Then make all your jello.

You will need :

1 package each of purple, blue, green, yellow and orange.  Then 2 packages of red.  Also 1 container of Cool Whip.  

Make all your single packages of jello with 1 1/2 cups of boiling water.  Use 2 1/2 for the red.  

Let it cool some before you start adding to the mold.  

When you are ready, start with the purple.  Add 3/4 cup of the jello to the mold and set it in the fridge.  Add 2-3 tbsp of cool whip to the rest of the purple.  Wait 15 minutes and carefully poor it on top of the first layer.   Continue with the rest, waiting 10 - 15 minutes between each new addition.  Did I mention you need something else to do while you are doing this?  I added the colors in this order: purple, blue, green, yellow, orange and then red.  

Let it set overnight.  When you go to unmold , set the mold into hot water, briefly.  Not enough to melt it, just to loosen it.  Wipe off the excess water then flip onto your serving plate.  Careful, you don't want it to bounce onto the floor!  It is really slippery!!
