How to Make Fluffy Jello Dessert
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- **Make the crust:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup sugar, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
- **Prepare the jello filling:** In a large bowl, combine 1 (3 ounce) package of jello (any flavor), 1 cup boiling water, and ½ cup sugar. Stir until the sugar and jello are completely dissolved.
- Add 1 cup cold water and stir well. Let the mixture chill in the refrigerator until thickened but not set (about 2-3 hours).
- **Whip the topping:** In a separate bowl, beat 1 (12 ounce) can of evaporated milk with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form – similar to whipped cream.
- Gently fold the whipped evaporated milk into the chilled jello mixture until just combined.
- Pour the jello mixture into the cooled graham cracker crust.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.
- Garnish with extra graham cracker crumbs before serving.
