Red White & Blue Keto Jello Dessert
INGREDIENTS
- 3 sugar free single serving drink mixes (red, white and blue in color)
- 4 cups of water
- 4 oz of cream cheese, softened
- ¾ cup heavy cream
- red and blue berries (I used strawberries and blueberries)
- food coloring (optional)
- 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder
Preparation
First make your blue layer of keto jello by add 1 cup of cold water and a blue drink mix to a glass measuring cup or a medium bowl and sprinkle in the gelatin powder. Mix it well and let it bloom while you boil water.
Add 1 cup boiling water to the gelatin mixture. Whisk for a few minutes until the gelatin is dissolved then pour the liquid into your dessert cups. I use these glass dessert cups which worked well but you can try jars as well.
Place them in the refrigerator for 2 hours or more until they set and are firm to the touch.
Meanwhile about an hour before they are ready, make the red layer of jello just like you made the blue except us a red drink mix. You want it to cool down before you add it to the blue layer. Pour the red jello over the blue and refrigerate for another hour or so.
When the red layer has set, make the cheesecake layer by beating the cream cheese and drink mix until creamy using an electric mixer. Then add in the heavy cream and continue to whip until the texture is nice and creamy.
Pipe or spread the cream cheese mixture over the set jello and then decorate with strawberries and blueberries though they are just for decoration.
Refrigerate until ready to eat.
