How to Make Aunt Agnes Broken Glass Cake
- Prepare gelatin: Dissolve each package of gelatin in hot water according to package directions. Stir until completely dissolved.
- Refrigerate: Refrigerate the gelatin mixtures until completely firm (at least 4 hours). Once set, cut each into small cubes.
- Prepare Gelatin Base: In a separate bowl, soften the unflavored gelatin in 1/4 cup cold water for 5 minutes. Add the hot pineapple juice and stir until completely dissolved. Let cool slightly.
- Whip the cream: In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Add vanilla extract and mix well.
- Combine: Gently fold the cooled pineapple gelatin mixture into the whipped cream until combined.
- Assemble the cake: Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan with ladyfingers.
- Layer: Gently fold the cubed gelatin into the cream mixture. Pour the mixture into the prepared springform pan.
- Decorate: Decorate the top of the cake with whipped cream, fruit, chocolate shavings, or any other desired garnish.
- Chill: Refrigerate for at least 6-12 hours, or overnight, to allow the cake to set completely.
- Serve: Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
