Lucky Four Leaf Clover Jello

When I saw this recipe for St Patrick’s Day Ice Cream Jello I knew I had to give it a try. I didn’t have any ice cream on hand so I decided to whip up a basic vanilla gelato and use that instead. Because gelato is thinner than ice cream – it uses milk instead of double cream – my jello didn’t have the wonderful layers that the Food Librarian’s did.

Jello is so versatile and easy to play around with - I can't believe I never tried incorporating it in any recipes before.

I didn’t have any St Patrick’s Day moulds, so I improvised  –  I used my heart ice cube/chocolate mould to make shamrock shapes! This is my final St Patrick’s Day recipe for this year – sniff sniff – but I hope you all have a great time this Saturday, I know I will!
