Halloween Jell-O® Spiders

Ingredients

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 2 packages of black cherry Jell-O® (3 oz each)
  • 1 cup gummy spiders (or any other creepy candy you prefer)
  • Plastic spiders for decoration (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
  2. Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in the two packages of black cherry Jell-O® until fully dissolved.
  3. Add in 1 cup of cold water to the mixture and stir well to combine.
  4. Prepare your serving cups or bowls by placing them at an angle in a muffin tin or on a stable surface. This helps create a fun look when the Jell-O sets.
  5. Carefully pour the Jell-O mixture into the cups. Make sure to leave some space at the top for the gummy spiders.
  6. Place the gummy spiders into the Jell-O mixture, ensuring a few of them are partially submerged for that creepy, crawly effect.
  7. Refrigerate the Jell-O for at least 4 hours or until set. To make it easy to remove from cups, you can lightly dip the bottom of the cups in warm water for a few seconds.
  8. Once set, you can optionally adorn the cups with plastic spiders to add an extra spooky touch!
