This is a nice desert, easy to make. The kids love it. This does need to chill for 3 hours.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup cold water
1/4 ounce unflavored gelatin (equilavents can be found at the bottom of the recipe.)
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup boiling water
1 1/4 cups evaporated milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 kiwi fruits (optional)
4 ripe fresh strawberries (optional)
Directions:
1. Note: Cook time is the chill time.
2. Measure cold water into small bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over cold water. Let stand for 1 minute.
3. Add sugar to gelatin mixture.
4. Stir until gelatin dissolves.
5. Pour boiling water into medium bowl.
6. Stir in gelatin mixture.
7. Combine milk, vanilla and almond extract. Stir milk mixture into gelatin mixture.
8. Divide mixture between four serving dishes. Refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.
9. Pare and slice kiwis.
10. Arrange kiwi slices and strawberries over each dessert.
11. Gelatin equivalents are One envelope of plain granulated gelatin = 1/4 ounce = 1 tablespoon, enough to gel two cups liquid.
12. Sometimes I substitute vanilla sugar for the sugar. This can be found in most European or gourmet markets. Or, make it yourself by combining two whole vanilla beans and sugar in a canister. The ratio of sugar to beans depends on how strong it is as well as how long you let it sit.
