~A quick fun dessert~

~While we were in Costa Rica in 2004/2005 we were served a yummy simple dessert. You make a large box of Jello...or 2 small boxes. Instead of using 4 cups of water add an extra 1 1/2 cups-2 cups of water! This will make your Jello more runny. (This time I added an extra cup and a half, and the Jello here (NOT Jello brand) must be more thick, for the gelatin wasn't really as runny as I wanted it.) You then dish up your ice cream, and pour a little jello over it and then place a fun cookie sticking out of your ice cream. It's fun, light and easy. Enjoy!~

If you were wanting stiff jello for company it would turn out runny. Crazy how that happens. I've never thought of pairing jello with ice cream. I'll have to give it a try.

I've never paired it with ice cream, but I'll have to try it.
I paired cherry jello with chocolate pudding once though (reminds me of black forest desserts). It was tasty.

I wanted to let you know I fixed your "Soppy Chocolate" recipe again tonight.
I was in the mood for something different. I used the quick roll recipe instead of biscuits (the kind that is like a biscuit/muffin). It was a big hit with my boys!
Thanks again for sharing that so long ago! :-)
