Lip Smackers


These are jello jigglers Valentine style. You'll need:
3 packages (3 ounces each) red flavored gelatin (or your favorite flavor)
4 envelopes Knox unflavored gelatin
Pink decorating icing

Place all the red gelatin in a large bowl. Pour in 3 cups boiling water; stir to dissolve gelatin, about 3 minutes. In another bowl, sprinkle 4 envelopes unflavored gelatin over 3 cups cold water. Let gelatin sit to absorb water, then stir to combine. Pour clear gelatin into red gelatin and stir to combine. Pour mixture in a 9 x 13 baking pan, and refrigerate until set about 2 hours.

Dip a lip shaped cookie cutter (or hearts if you like) into hot water, then cut shapes out from gelatin. To make it easier to remove the lips from the pan, place bottom of pan in hot water for about 5 to 8 seconds, then remove the cutouts with a thin spatula (metal works best) Pipe outline of lips using pink decorating icing.
