Ingredients

  • 1 box (1 ounce) unflavored gelatin (I used Knox)
  • 4 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 can (14 ounces) condensed milk
  • 1 can (12.8 ounces) table cream

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large bowl, sprinkle the gelatin on the remaining 1 cup of cold water. Let stand for about 1 minute or until gelatin powder begins to bloom.
  2. In a sauce pot, bring 3 cups of the water to a boil. Add instant coffee and sugar. Stir until dissolved.
  3. Gradually add the 3 cups of boiling coffee to the bloomed gelatin and stir constantly for about 2 to 3 minutes or until gelatin is completely dissolved and no granules are visible.
  4. Transfer mixture into a  baking dish and allow to completely cool. Refrigerate for about 2 to 3 hours or until completely set. 
  5. In a bowl, combine condensed milk and table cream. Stir until blended.
  6. Cut set gelatin into 1-inch cubes and divide into serving cups. Top with sweetened cream.
  7. Garnish with whipped cream, if desired. Serve cold.

Notes

  • I like Knox brand for my coffee jelly and use about 4 cups of strong coffee to achieve the texture I like. Check your package instructions on how much liquid is recommended for that particular brand.
