Equipment

  • glass measuring cup

Ingredients
  

  • 2 limes
  • 3 ounce package pink or red Jello gelatin (any flavor, watermelon, cherry, strawberry)
  • 5 ounces boiling water
  • chocolate sprinkles (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Slice limes lengthwise, and juice them completely.
  • Use kitchen sheers to remove the excess pulp/membranes from the insides of the limes. Invert the lime halves on a paper towel to drain off any moisture, if necessary. Turn halves over and arrange them on a plate so they are ready to be filled. You will have 4 halves if you started with 2 limes.

  • In a glass measuring cup, combine the gelatin mix with the boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved, about 3 minutes.  
  • Gently pour the Jello into the lime halves.  Some may spill onto the plate, but it can easily be cleaned later.

  • If adding decoration, like sprinkles, add them now, or press them on after the Jello has set. Carefully transfer plate to refrigerator for at least 3-4 hours or until completely set.  
  • Slice each half lime lengthwise again to create the look of a watermelon slice.
