7-UP Gelatin (Jello) Salad Delight

This delightful 7-UP Gelatin Salad is a beloved treat for both kids and adults, a recipe I first discovered while living in Texas. Its combination of fruity flavors and fluffy texture makes it a go-to dessert for any occasion, especially when you’re looking for something light and refreshing. Here’s how to make it:

Ingredients

  • 1 package orange-pineapple flavored gelatin
  • 1 package raspberry Jell-O gelatin
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 2 bananas, sliced
  • 1 can (8 oz) crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup flour

For the Topping

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup whipped topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Gelatin Base:

    • Begin by dissolving the orange-pineapple flavored gelatin and the raspberry Jell-O gelatin in 2 cups of boiling water. Stir the mixture thoroughly until both gelatins are completely dissolved.
  2. Add Marshmallows:

    • Once the gelatins are fully dissolved, add the mini marshmallows to the hot mixture. Stir continuously until the marshmallows are completely melted and incorporated into the gelatin mixture.
  3. Incorporate 7-Up:

    • Gently fold in the 7-Up into the gelatin mixture. This will give your salad a delightful fizzy texture. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
  4. Add Fruit:

    • After the gelatin mixture has cooled, fold in the drained crushed pineapple and sliced bananas. Mix gently to ensure the fruit is evenly distributed throughout the gelatin.
  5. Chill the Gelatin:

    • Pour the gelatin mixture into a dish of your choice and refrigerate. Allow it to set until firm, which usually takes a few hours.
  6. Prepare the Topping:

    • While the gelatin is setting, prepare the topping. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens.
  7. Cool and Fold in Whipped Topping:

    • Remove the thickened mixture from the heat and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  8. Apply the Topping:

    • Once the gelatin has set and is firm, spread the prepared topping evenly over the surface of the gelatin.
  9. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Return the dish to the refrigerator and allow it to chill for an additional hour to let the topping set. Serve chilled and enjoy this refreshing, fruity delight!

This 7-UP Gelatin Salad Delight is sure to be a crowd-pleaser at any gathering. Its vibrant colors and refreshing flavors make it a perfect addition to your dessert table, and it’s a fun way to enjoy a classic treat with a twist! 🍍🍌✨
