Step-by-Step Instructions for Layered Rainbow Jello
  1. Clear out space in your refrigerator and prepare your workspace for the Layered Rainbow Jello.
  2. In a mixing bowl, dissolve the 3 oz of grape gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved. Divide into two bowls.
  3. Mix ½ cup of vanilla yogurt into half of your dissolved gelatin mixture. Pour into a clear dish and refrigerate for about 30–35 minutes to set.
  4. Mix the remaining gelatin with ¼ cup of cold water and spoon this layer gently over the yogurt layer. Refrigerate for another 30–35 minutes.
  5. Continue layering alternating yogurt and clear gelatin, following the color order and allowing each layer to set for 30–35 minutes.
  6. Once all layers are complete, chill in the refrigerator until serving, ideally for a few hours or overnight.
