Fun Valentine Treat

Remember Jello Jigglers? We hadn’t made any here in ages but they would make a cute treat for Valentine’s Day. The directions are right on the boxes of Jello and they only need Jello and water to make them.

I suggest using red Jello for Valentine’s Day. I made half of a recipe and used an 8″ x 8″ pan.

Heart shapes are great for Valentine’s Day, of course. 😉

Remember to dip the pan in hot water for a few seconds to help with removing the shapes. The smaller sized hearts came out easier than the large ones. And there they are!

To make them fancier, add a bit of whipped cream on top or some pink yogurt.

Be careful that the kids you share these with are old enough to chew them up well. They take some extra chewing! Hope your Valentine’s Day will be a fun one! 🙂
