How to Make Almond Jello

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup evaporated milk, 1 (1 ounce) package unflavored gelatin, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin and sugar are completely dissolved.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in 2 teaspoons almond extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 cups evaporated milk and 2 teaspoons almond extract.
  4. Gradually pour the milk mixture into the warm gelatin mixture, stirring constantly until well combined.
  5. Pour the mixture into a medium-sized bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until firm.
  6. Once firm, cut the jello into cubes. Gently fold in 1 (15 ounce) can fruit cocktail, including the juice.
  7. Mix lightly and serve chilled. Garnish with slivered almonds (optional).
