Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Empty one 3.94 packet of any flavor of choice Gelatin/jello mix into a cold pot.
Add in 2 tbsp unflavored gelatin
Add 1 cup water and stir (less water will create a slighty more firm gummy but may increase gelatin flavor.)
Turn on burner to medium heat and stir periodically until
The mixture is thick and clear with no lumps.
Remove from heat and immediately move to molds or container to cool.
Place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before enjoying.
(An hour or longer is ideal for texture) If putting in a regular container you will want to cut into cubes otherwise you'll have one huge gummy!
Keep in fridge for freshness and firmness, lasts about 2 days before gummies begin to dry out on edges.

Notes

**Healthier swaps** For this recipe I used a regular sugar packet of jello but to drastically lower the calories and sugar, I recommend using sugar free jello. Also using pure bovine gelatin adds more protien without sacrificing flavor or texture. Amazing macros for calorie counters. Molds: I have used several molds for this recipe, I love the dinosaur molds from Walmart, this recipe yields about 30 gummies, or 2 mold sheets. Note* using a syringe is great for a mess free distribution of the melted gelatin mixture.
