Instructions

Prepare the Topping: In a mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and mini marshmallows. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least until the marshmallows have softened. If you prepare this in the morning, it should be ready by evening. Once softened, use an electric mixer to beat the mixture until smooth and creamy, creating a delightful topping for your jello.

-
Dissolve the Jell-O: In a separate bowl, dissolve the raspberry Jell-O gelatin and sugar in the boiling water. Stir well until fully dissolved, ensuring a vibrant color and flavor.
-
Mix in Raspberries: Gently fold in the frozen raspberries, mixing until they are well distributed throughout the gelatin mixture.
-
Incorporate Applesauce: Add the applesauce to the jello mixture, stirring until everything is combined evenly.
-
Set the Jello: Pour the mixture into a 13 x 9-inch pan, smoothing the top if needed. Place the pan in the refrigerator and allow the jello to set until firm, which usually takes several hours.
-
Add the Topping: Once the jello has firmed up, spread the sour cream and marshmallow mixture evenly on top, creating a creamy layer that adds richness to each bite.
-
Store Leftovers: If you have any leftovers, cover and refrigerate them to keep them fresh for later enjoyment.
Enjoy!
