Best Rainbow Cherry Jigglers Recipes

RAINBOW CHERRY JIGGLERS

Steps:

• 1. Prepare half-sphere flexible silicon molds, can use square too, by lightly spraying with unflavored pam, or by wiping the cavities with a paper towel dipped in vegetable oil. Wipe the cavities with a clean paper towel. This will leave a thin layer of Pam/oil and will help un-mold the gelatin without affecting the taste. Place each mold on a cookie sheet or cooling rack to provide a stable surface for handling. Prepare 30 maraschino cherries, with stems, by cutting a thin slice off the bottom so they will stand up on the gelatin without falling over. Place cut cherries on paper towel to drain.
• 2. OPAQUE LAYER Place juice in a saucepan and sprinkle with gelatin. Allow to soak for a minute or two. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved (approximately 5 minutes). Remove from heat. Fill each mold cavity 1/3 full with gelatin mixture. Place molds in refrigerator until gelatin sets, 30 to 45 minutes. Prepare clear layer.
• 3. CLEAR LAYER Place juice in saucepan and sprinkle with gelatin. Allow to soak for a minute or two. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved (approximately 5 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside to slightly cool (about 15 minutes). When mixture has cooled, remove molds from refrigerator. Place a cherry, cut side down, in each cavity. Fill the cavities to the top with reserved clear gelatin mixture. Return molds to refrigerator, and chill for several hours (ideally overnight to avoid separation in the layers when unmolded).
• 4. To serve, carefully pop the gelatin out of the molds and place on serving plate. Immediately before serving, dust with multicolor cake sprinkles or whatever you choose. Makes 30 Cherry Jigglers
• 5. NOTE: If you can't get different color/flavor maraschino cherries in your local grocery store and you'd like to order them, here is a supplier... http://www.rolandfood.com/#QLeV8VEDb

RAINBOW CHERRY JIGGLERS

Steps:

• Implements: Two flexible silicone half-sphere molds (Half-Sphere .68 Oz, 1.57" Dia. x .79" Deep, 15 Cavities), a little spray cooking oil or vegetable oil, and paper towels
• Prepare the molds by wiping the mold cavities with a paper towel moistened with a a little vegetable oil (or a quick spray of unflavored cooking oil spray will also work). Then, wipe the mold cavities with a clean paper towel. This will leave just the slightest residue, which will help unmold the gelatin without affecting the taste or appearance. Place each mold on a cookie sheet or cooling rack to provide a stable surface.
• Prepare cherries. Cut the very bottom end off each cherry. (This will allow the cherries to stand up straight in the molds.) Place the cut cherries on a paper towel to drain.
• Prepare Opaque Layer. Place juice in a saucepan and sprinkle with the gelatin. Allow to soak for a minute or two. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly, until dissolved (approximately 5 minutes). Remove from heat. Fill each mold cavity 1/3 full with the gelatin mixture. Refrigerate until fully set, 30 minutes to an hour. Meanwhile, prepare the Clear Layer.
• Place juice in a saucepan and sprinkle with the gelatin. Allow to soak for a minute or two. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly, until dissolved (approximately 5 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly (about 15 minutes).
• When the mixture has cooled, and the Opaque Layer is set, remove the molds from the refrigerator. Place a cherry, cut side down, in each mold cavity. Using a tablespoon, carefully fill each mold cavity to the top with the reserved clear gelatin mixture. Return molds to the refrigerator, and chill for several hours (ideally overnight to allow the layers to fully bond).
• To serve, unmold. Immediately before serving, garnish with the cake sprinkles, if desired.
