Keto Friendly Fancy Ribbon Jello (Extremely Low Carb!)

A Pretty & festive Jello Dessert!

Ingredients: 

4 (3 ounce) boxes of sugar free (stevia sweetened) jello (2 to 4 different flavors/colors)**
2 envelopes of Knox unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup hot water
2 cups unsweetened low carb almond or coconut milk
1 cup Lakanto Baking or Classic sweetener
1 teaspoon vanilla
16 ounces (2 cups) sour cream

Method:
Layer 1: Prepare one box of jello as directed on the package. Pour into a 9 x 13 inch dish. Refrigerate for 45 minutes, until set. Place the unflavored gelatin in a small bowl. Stir in the 1/2 cup of hot water. Set aside.
While the first layer is setting, heat the milk to a boil, slowly, while stirring. Add the sweetener, vanilla and softened gelatin. Stir continuously and return to a gentle boil. Set aside to cool, at room temperature. After the mixture has cooled, stir in the sour cream, until well blended. Divide the vanilla mixture into 3 equal parts. (Stir occasionally, to prevent the mixture from getting too thick.)
Layer 2: When the first layer is firm enough, add one portion of the vanilla gelatin. Chill for 45 minutes. 
Layers 3 - 7. Repeat the process, alternating colored and vanilla layers. (To avoid spilling, add upper layers by gently pouring the liquid jello, into the dish, while it remains in the refrigerator.)Cut into 24 squares.

**Stevia sweetened gelatins may be purchased online and at some natural food stores.

Notes:   This is a family favorite and worth the effort! Choose colors and flavors to match holidays or school colors. (At Christmas, I use raspberry and lime jellos.)
