Ingredients
- 2 (3 oz) boxes of Jello (lime, grape, or orange for Halloween colors)
- 2 cups boiling water (per Jello box instructions)
- 2 cups cold water (per Jello box instructions)
- 1 cup whipped topping (optional, for topping)
- 1 bag gummy worms (sour or regular)
- Green or purple food coloring (optional, for extra spookiness)
- Black sprinkles, candy eyeballs, or Halloween-themed candies (optional for decoration)
Instructions
- Prepare the Jello Base: Boil 2 cups of water, add the Jello mix, and stir until dissolved. Add 2 cups of cold water and stir again.
- Pour Into Cups: Pour Jello mixture into 8 clear plastic cups (halfway full). Refrigerate until slightly set (about 45 minutes–1 hour).
- Add the “Creepy Crawlers”: Once the Jello is partially set but still soft, push a few gummy worms inside so they look like they’re wriggling out of the potion. Let the cups chill fully for another 1–2 hours until firm.
- Add Toppings: Before serving, add whipped cream on top like foamy “potion bubbles.” Decorate with extra gummy worms, sprinkles, or candy eyeballs.
