Print Recipe
Ingredients
- 85 g packet raspberry jelly or another flavour if preferred
- 340 ml can evaporated milk
- ¼ cup cream
Instructions
- In a bowl, dissolve the jelly crystals in ½ cup boiling water, stirring until completely dissolved.
- Add ½ cup cold water and stir to combine. Place the mixture in the fridge for 5 minutes, until it is cold but not set.
- Pour the chilled jelly mixture into a mixing bowl. Add the evaporated milk and cream.
- Beat the mixture for a couple of minutes until well combined and slightly frothy. It won’t noticeably thicken at this stage, which is normal — it will set once chilled.
- Divide the mixture evenly into serving dishes such as ramekins or dessert glasses.
- Place in the fridge for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
- Serve chilled, topped with whipped cream, fresh berries, or mini chocolate chips if you like.
Notes
Stacey's Kitchen Tips
- Make sure the jelly is cold but not set before mixing — this helps it whip properly
- Don’t worry if the mixture seems quite thin after beating — it will set properly in the fridge
- Evaporated milk gives the best texture — avoid swapping for regular milk
- Chill in individual portions for easy serving
Variations & Substitutions
- Use different jelly flavours such as strawberry, lime, or orange
- Top with grated chocolate instead of chocolate chips
