Description

This Brain Big Batch Jell-O Shot recipe is a fun and festive party treat that combines strawberry-flavored gelatin with whipped cream vodka and frozen whipped topping. Molded into a brain shape, these jell-o shots are perfect for Halloween or any gathering where you want a playful and colorful adult beverage dessert. The process involves dissolving the gelatin, mixing in alcohol and whipped topping, setting it overnight in a brain mold, and carefully unmolding it before serving.

Ingredients

Units Scale

Liquid Ingredients

  • 2 cups water
  • 3/4 cup whipped cream-flavored vodka (e.g., Pinnacle)

Dry Ingredients

  • 6 oz. strawberry Jell-o mix (two small packets or 1 large one)

Other Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip)

Instructions

  1. Boil and Dissolve Gelatin: In a medium-sized saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, turn off the heat and whisk in the 6 oz. strawberry Jell-o mix, stirring continuously for 1 to 2 minutes until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
  2. Mix in Vodka and Whipped Topping: Add 3/4 cup whipped cream-flavored vodka and 2 cups frozen whipped topping to the dissolved gelatin mixture. Whisk well to combine all ingredients evenly. Let the mixture cool for 5 to 6 minutes.
  3. Prepare Mold and Set: Grease or spray the brain-shaped mold with cooking spray to ensure easy removal. Pour the Jell-o mixture into the mold carefully. Place the mold in the refrigerator overnight to allow the gelatin to fully set.
  4. Unmold and Serve: Just before serving, fill a mixing bowl or casserole dish with warm water. Gently dip the brain mold into the warm water for about 20 seconds without letting water pour inside the mold. This loosens the gelatin so it can be easily flipped out onto a serving platter. Slice and serve the brain-shaped Jell-O shots to your guests.

Notes

  • Use a brain-shaped silicone mold for easy unmolding and fun presentation.
  • Make sure not to let water get inside the mold when dipping it into warm water.
  • The whipped cream-flavored vodka can be substituted with any flavored vodka of your choice.
  • Refrigerate the Jell-O shots overnight to ensure firm setting.
  • Serve chilled for best texture and taste.
