The jello we get here is Halal-certified. I don't know if it's because they use Halal animal hooves or fish or vegetarian sources, but at any rate, it sets just like normal jello from Canada.
We also don't have a problem with devilled and other seasoned nuts being Halal - they are, but perhaps that's because of the Halal jello.

gin and jello. make sure it's cold, but do not gel it. just put in the jello, the hot water, and the gin and the drink is beautiful. if you take too long; like nursing your drink, it will gel and it will be disgusting and warm.

Stab it with a fork a couple dozen times. Dissolve a packet of Jello in one cup boiling water, and pour over cake. Stick in fridge until set, and top it with Cool Whip.
OK, for a Shabbos dessert, I tried this. I bought an angel food cake and stabbed it, then poured the raspberry kojel over it. I mixed some raspberry kojel (while still hot) with the Kosher Cool-Whip like stuff, and covered the cake with it (also filling in the hole in the middle of the angel food cake. I set it in the refrigerator to firm up.
It looked just like the pink cake in "The Cat in the Hat Comes Back"! My family and Shabbos guests went nuts and ate it all up (but not in the bath tub).
I guess you can have your cholent and your jello, too!

Ewwwww. I can never understand how people can like mixing sweet stuff with cottage cheese. In my family, cottage cheese goes with savory dishes, like pot pie or spaghetti.

I like cottage cheese with sweet but not sugary fake stuff, like real uncanned peaches, or pineapple. Or with pepper on it's own.

Oooh, I love cottage cheese made into German Cheese Cake. Very very nummy, but not as rich as the cream cheese variety. Or Cottage Cheese Pancakes with maple syrop on it. Yum!

Mel! It's delightful! Give it a try!
Mack - I'm inclined to agree with you with the one small exception of this particular dish. *grin*

Two questions on which I possess expert knowledge . You shouldn't follow the water/gelatin ratio on the box, I increase the ratio by 3/2. (Ummm...2/3, I meant to write)
And you can make Rice Krispy treats with fluff. They are not as solid, but better tasting.

One package unflavored gelatin dissolved in a small amount of boiling water, diced maraschino cherries plus juice from them, one large can non-dairy whip (whipped).
Made lovely cherry mousse. The kids loved it almost as much as the cholent.

I wish we had cottage cheese or cool whip. I did orange jell-o mixed with canned grapefruit and oranges. But I don't read directions well. It says to hold off adding fruit until it is partially set and I just threw it all in together. Oh well.
