BROKEN GLASS CAKE



Broken Glass Cake image

The name does not accurately describe this dessert but since it has been a family favorite for so many years I am loathe to change it. This is a light, child-friendly dessert we instituted for the children at Christmas. It is especially well-received after a heavy meal. You will be asked for seconds!

Time 8h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (3 ounce) package lime flavored Jell-O® mix
1 (3 ounce) package orange flavored Jell-O® mix
1 (3 ounce) package strawberry flavored Jell-O®
3 cups boiling water, divided
3 cups cold water, divided
1 cup canned pineapple juice
1 (.25 ounce) package unflavored gelatin
2 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
½ cup butter, melted
½ cup brown sugar
2 cups chilled heavy cream
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place lime, orange, and strawberry gelatin mixes into 3 separate 9x9-inch glass dishes.
  • Pour 1 cup boiling water into each flavor of gelatin mix; stir the gelatin until dissolved.
  • Pour 1 cup cold water into each flavor of gelatin, stir to combine, and refrigerate the 3 flavors of gelatin until set, at least 4 hours.
  • Heat pineapple juice in a saucepan until hot but not simmering. Stir unflavored gelatin into pineapple juice until dissolved. Refrigerate pineapple juice mixture until cool and thickened, about 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.

  • Cut the different flavors of gelatin into cubes. Use a thin spatula to lift the cubes away from the bottom of the dish and loosen them.
  • Very gently fold the thickened pineapple juice and gelatin cubes into the whipped cream mixture until thoroughly combined. Spoon into the graham cracker crust.
  • Sprinkle the cake with reserved graham cracker crumb mixture.
  • Refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours to overnight.
