🛒 Ingredients
- 1 small package of Jello (any flavor/color)
- ½ cup boiling water
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Dissolve the Jello
In a microwave-safe bowl, mix Jello powder with boiling water. Stir until fully dissolved.
👉 If needed, microwave for 30 seconds and stir again.
2. Add Marshmallows
Add marshmallows and microwave for another 30 seconds.
3. Mix Until Smooth
Stir (or gently whisk) until marshmallows are completely melted and combined.
4. Pour & Chill
Pour mixture into a lightly greased 8×8-inch pan.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, until set.
5. Roll It Up
Run a knife around the edges to loosen. Carefully roll the Jello sheet as tightly as possible.
6. Slice
Cut into 1-inch pieces using a sharp knife.
💡 Tips for Best Results
- Use an 8×8 pan (larger pans make it too thin)
- Lightly grease the pan to prevent sticking
- Don’t over-whisk—too many bubbles can form
- Use a sharp knife for cleaner slices
- Rolls may unroll slightly—totally normal (and fun!)
