How to Make Orange Coffee Jello
- Brew 1 1/2 cups of strong coffee.
- Sweeten the brewed coffee to your desired level of sweetness. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of orange essence (or to taste; substitute with orange zest for a more natural flavor).
- In a small bowl, sprinkle 5 sheets of gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
- Gently heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave in 10-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until completely dissolved. Do not boil.
- Slowly whisk the dissolved gelatin into the still-hot coffee mixture. Make sure to whisk constantly to prevent clumping.
- Divide the coffee jello mixture evenly between two small dessert cups or glasses.
- Let the jello mixture cool slightly at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
- Refrigerate for at least two hours, or until the jello is set completely.
- To serve, whip 1/2 cup heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Top each serving with half of the whipped cream.
- Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Enjoy your delicious Orange Coffee Jello!
