How to Make Jello Squares

In a large 2-quart bowl, combine 3 (3-ounce) packages of Jello powder with 2 cups of boiling water.
Stir vigorously until the Jello powder is completely dissolved.
Gently fold in 1 (8-ounce) container of Cool Whip, stirring until just combined.
Pour the mixture into a greased 13x9 inch glass baking dish.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the Jello is completely set.
Once set, cut into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy!
