Jelly in layers
Description
The recipe won't take much time. You can use jelly of any color or choose a single color, resulting in just two colors. You'll need jelly in packets and gelatin. Preparation takes time, so if you're planning to make this treat for a celebration, prepare it the night before. You can make a multi-layered jelly or use just a few layers. Serve chilled.
