This crazy stuff was invented by our friend Maris (who is actually the mom of an HG staffer). It's a fizzy, creamy, wobbly dream dessert and can be used in parfaits, as pie filling, or eaten straight from the bowl! Feel free to experiment with a slew of SF Jell-O and diet soda flavors!

Ingredients

1 cup Cool Whip Free

1 large 8-serving box (or 2 small 4-serving boxes) Jell-O Sugar Free Orange Gelatin Dessert Mix

1 can diet cream soda

Directions

Dissolve gelatin mix into 2 cups of boiling water. Stir for 2 minutes or until completely dissolved. Then stir in soda.

Refrigerate for about 1½ hours (mixture should be thickened, but not gelled).

With an electric mixer, stir in Cool Whip until thoroughly blended. Return to fridge until very firm (overnight is best).
