JELLO WORMS: HOW TO MAKE A BOWL WORMS

Steps:

• In a large measuring cup, combine the Jello and the unflavoured gelatin.
• Add the boiling water and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
• Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes or until lukewarm.
• Stretch each of the straws open to extend the flexible parts and then put the straws into the mason jar with the flexible side closer to the bottom.
• Add the green food colouring to the whipping cream and stir until combined. (Just stir it, don't whip it).
• Pour the whipping cream mixture into the Jello mixture and stir until it's well combined.
• Pour the mixture through the top of the straws until it fills the container. The straws will self level so don't worry about filling each individual straw.
• Chill for at least 8 hours.
• Run each straw under hot water for a few seconds.
• Pinch the straw from the top down to squeeze out each worm.
• If you are making these in advance, squeeze the worms onto a waxed paper lined baking sheet and store, covered, in the fridge until you are ready to serve them.
• These can be made up to 2 days in advance.

SQUIRMY JELLY WORMS

Steps:

• 1. Ingredients:: •6 oz Raspberry jello •1 pkg unflavored gelatin (for extra firmness) •3/4 cup whipping cream •3 cups boiling water •15 drops green food coloring •100 flexible straws (or enough to fill your container) •Tall container (1 quart or 1 liter carton of milk)
• 2. Directions:: 1.Combine gelatin in bowl and add boiling water. 2.Let it cool to lukewarm and then add the whipping cream and 15 drops green food coloring. 3.Gather your straws (don't forget to flex them out) and put them in the container. It's important that the straws have a tight fit so the jello stays in the straws. For this reason, a 1 liter carton may be better; you will probably get longer worms since there is a tighter fit. If you have a bigger container, a rubber band around the straws is helpful. Or you could just add more straws to fill the container. 4.Add the gelatin mixture to the straw-filled container and let it set until firm. 5.There are multiple ways you can remove the worms from the straws. You can roll a rolling pin over the straws and squeeze them out or you can hold the straws over warm water. The worms will slip right out.
