Received this in email today when our heat index was 102F! It was so hot I did not even brew a pot of coffee this am! This gelatin recipe will replace coffee tomorrow - I listed it as a dessert but think I'll be having for breakfast! Will make as written first then try with Splenda (1:1 substitution). Three hours is chill time. Thank you, Ms. Bertha Robbards - this is going to be mighty refreshing!
Ingredients:
1/4 ounce unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
1 3/4 cups coffee, strong, hot
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup whipped cream
1 tablespoon coffee, finely ground (optional)
Directions:
1. For a firmer jelly, use 1 1/2 envelopes unflavored gelatin.
2. Soften gelatin in cold water. Add coffee and stir until gelatin is dissolved. Stir in sugar, salt and vanilla extract. Pour into 8 x 4-inch loaf dish and chill until firm.
3. Cut into cubes and spoon into small dessert glasses. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with finely ground coffee.
