Carrot-Shaped Jell-O Jigglers – A Fun Easter Treat for the Kids to Eat
I am just tickled at how these Easter Treats came out. They are just as much fun as Oreo Cookie Chicks, adorable Bird Nest Haystack Cookies with chocolate eggs in the nest or Carrot Shaped Blonde Brownies
I’ve had this idea for a while now and finally got to pull everything together to make these Jello Jiggler Carrots. They were so darn simple to make. The kids even helped make their carrots. When it came time to taste test, the kids loved their Jello Carrots. My daughter joked that I should make more vegetables this way.
Make-Ahead and Storage:
You can make these Jell-O Jigglers a few days in advance. Prepare everything and refrigerate the Jell-O in the bag. Wait until just before party time to insert the licorice into the carrots and refrigerate until ready to eat
Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Tips and Tricks for making this Carrot Shaped Treats:
- Make at least 3 hours before serving to give the Jell-O enough time to firm up
- When setting the carrots into your pan to set up – place them seam side down and check that the Jell-O is pushed down into the tip of the bag by adjusting if necessary
- The only really fragile part of this treat is the small Jell-O tip. Be careful when pulling the bag away from the tip so it does not break
