Eyeball Jello Cups with Whipped Cream
Course Dessert
Cuisine American
Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Measuring Cups
  • Refrigerator

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package (3 oz) lime gelatin mix
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 4 clear plastic cups
  • 4 canned lychees, drained
  • 4 blueberries
  • 1 cup whipped cream

Instructions
 

  • Pour the lime gelatin mix into a mixing bowl and add the boiling water. Stir until the powder is completely dissolved.
  • Stir in the cold water until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
  • Divide the gelatin mixture evenly among the four clear plastic cups.
  • Gently press one drained lychee into the center of each cup so it sits just below the surface. Place one blueberry inside each lychee to form the pupil.
  • Place the cups in the refrigerator and chill until the jello is fully set, about four hours.
  • Just before serving, add a spoonful of whipped cream to the top of each cup.

Notes

Drain the lychees well on a paper towel before adding them so extra liquid does not thin the jello. Prepare the cups a day ahead and keep them covered in the fridge, then add the whipped cream right before guests arrive. If you prefer a milder flavor, use a sugar-free gelatin mix.
