Ingredients

Instructions

  • Pour 1 cup of water into a small saucepan. Stir in 2 packets of unflavored gelatin and warm the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally until the gelatin has dissolved completely.
  • Remove from heat and add half of the condensed milk to the gelatin mixture. Stir until well combined.
  • Add 2/3 cup of vodka, cover, and set half of the mixture aside for the final layer of your Halloween jello shots.
  • Divide the remaining mixture into your shot glasses, about 1/3 full each. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until firm.
    step 4 Halloween Jello Shots
  • For the middle layer, pour 1 cup of water into a small saucepan. Stir in the remaining unflavored gelatin packet and warm the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally until the gelatin has dissolved completely.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the orange Jell-O until it dissolves.
  • Add the remaining 1/3 cup of vodka, then pour this orange mixture over the shot glasses with the white layer. Refrigerate until firm.
  • Once the orange layer is solid, add a few drops of yellow food coloring in the white mixture that you set aside earlier.
    step 8 Halloween Jello Shots
  • Pour the yellow layer over the shot glasses with the white and orange layers.
    step 9 Halloween Jello Shots
  • Refrigerate the candy corn jello shots for 2 hours or until set. You can also garnish them with candy corn.
    step 10 Halloween Jello Shots

Notes

  • If the reserved white mixture has started to firm up, microwave it for 15 seconds and stir until it returns to a pourable consistency.
  • You can serve the candy corn shots with spoons! These Halloween jello shots are intended to be firmer than the usual ones made according to the Jell-O box instructions. If you want them less firm, try making the orange layer without the gelatin packet.
  • Avoid using too much vodka, or your candy corn jello shots won’t set properly. Additionally, wait for each layer to set completely to prevent color bleeding.
