Christmas Jello

Christmas parties and family get togethers are just around the corner. We will be making lots of red and green treats at our house.

For our July 4th parties, I always make our Firecracker Jell-O Cups. After those became a hit, I began making our Halloween Candy Corn Jell-O Cups. These little cups are always such a hit so I am convinced that these little Christmas versions will be popular at this years holiday parties too.

My entire family loves Jello. I like that Jello is so easy to make and so super inexpensive. This batch that I made on Tuesday is already gone. All of the kiddos and hubby were ready for me to be done taking pictures so they could enjoy a couple.

You can make a large batch with little to no effort. Just grab a box of red Jell-O, a box of green Jell-O, and some whipped topping. I added on some Christmas holly sprinkles but they are not needed.

  1. Can these Jell-O shots be made with alcohol?? Thought it would be a nice bar treat during our Christmas gathering…& yes, they’re only made for adults while other non-alcohol batch for youngsters will be offered!! Thanks~
    Merry Christmas to you & yours!!

  2. I haven’t made Jello cups in years! These would be so much fun to do this year. Thanks for sharing. #HomeMattersParty

  3. Hi,
    I love your desserts, they are cute and look so delicious. I just wanted to give an FYI about M&M candies. They are known to contain nanoparticles. If this is the first time you are hearing about nanoparticles, you might want to do an internet search on “food with nanoparticles”.
    Thank You.
