Inspired by the classic American sandwich, these PB&J Jell-O Shots are its boozy version made with peanut butter, your favorite jam, and vodka. It’s an easy and fun treat to serve up this Valentine’s Day or any winter occasion.
These Jell-O shots are pretty easy to whip up. The hardest part of this recipe is the waiting. The waiting for each layer to set before adding the next one, that is. To make your layered Jell-O shots, you will need a saucepan, a whisk, a large measuring cup, and a loaf pan. For ingredients: 4 envelopes plain gelatin, water, smooth peanut butter, some heavy cream, fruit jelly, and vodka. Technique tip: make sure to spray the loaf pan before you start to prevent the bottom layer from sticking to the pan. Warning: these little treats are highly addicting.
To make these PB&J Jell-O Shots, you will need the following ingredients:
In a small saucepan, add 1 cup water and sprinkle over 2 envelopes plain gelatin and leave to bloom for 2 minutes. Turn the heat to medium and whisk until the gelatin has dissolved.
Remove from the heat and whisk in ¾ cup smooth peanut butter and 2 tablespoons heavy cream until smooth. Stir in 1 cup vodka.
Pour the peanut butter mixture into a large measuring cup and set aside.
In a clean saucepan, add ½ cup water and sprinkle over 2 envelopes gelatin and let bloom for 2 minutes. Turn the heat to medium and whisk until the gelatin has dissolved.
Reduce the heat to low and whisk in ½ cup raspberry or strawberry jelly until fully dissolved, then remove and stir in ½ cup vodka. Skim and discard foam from the top.
Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray and add half the peanut butter mixture, about 1 ⅓ cup. Transfer to the fridge for 30 minutes or until slightly firm.
Slowly pour the jelly mixture over the first layer and place back in the refrigerator for another 30 minutes.
Gently add the remaining peanut butter mixture and then transfer to the refrigerator to firm up completely for 1-2 hours more.
To serve, turn out onto a cutting board and cut into squares. Enjoy!
