Ingredients
  

For the Jell-O Layers
  • 1 box Strawberry Jell-O gelatin (red)
  • 1 box Berry Blue Jell-O gelatin (blue)
For the Toppings
  • 1 tub Cool Whip thawed
  • 1 carton Driscoll’s strawberries
  • 1 carton Driscoll’s blueberries
Equipment
  • 1 pack Clear plastic party cups

Method
 

Preparation of Layers
  1. Make the Berry Blue Jell-O according to the package instructions. Pour evenly into clear plastic cups, filling each about one-third full.
  2. Refrigerate the cups for about 1–2 hours, or until the blue gelatin is completely set.
  3. Spoon or pipe a layer of Cool Whip over the blue gelatin layer.
  4. Make the Strawberry Jell-O according to package directions. Allow it to cool slightly before carefully pouring it over the Cool Whip layer.
  5. Return the cups to the refrigerator and chill until the red layer is firm, about 1–2 hours.
  6. Top each cup with extra Cool Whip, sliced strawberries, and fresh blueberries to create a festive red, white, and blue presentation.
  7. Keep chilled until ready to serve for the perfect cool and refreshing holiday dessert.

Notes

Store these Jell-O cups in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days; cover with plastic wrap to keep them fresh. For a smoother layer of Cool Whip, consider leaving it out at room temperature for a few minutes before layering.
