From the Joys of Jello
Broken Window Glass Cake
1 pkg. (3 oz.) Orange Jello
1 pkg. (3 oz.) Cherry Jello
1 pkg. (3 oz.) Lime Jello
3 cups boiling water
2 cups cold water
1 cup pineapple juice
1/4 cup sugar
1 pkg. (3 oz.) Lemon Jello
16 to 18 ladyfingers, split to line pan *
2 cups whipping cream (or) Dream Whip dessert topping
*Or use 1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs mixed with 1/3 cup melted butter -- as a sub. for ladyfingers.
Prepare the three flavors of gelatin separately, using 1 cup boiling water and 1/2 cup cold water for each. Pour each flavor into an 8 inch square pan. Chill until firm, or overnight.
Then mix pineapple juice and sugar. Heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat. Dissolve lemon gelatin in the hot juice; then add 1/2 cup cold water. Chill until slightly thickened. Line the bottom of 9 inch spring form pan with lady fingers OR the graham cracker crumb mixture.
Cut the firm gelatins into 1/2 inch cubes. Whip the cream; blend with lemon gelatin. Fold in gelatin cubes. Pour into pan. Chill at least 5 hours, or overnight. Run knife or spatula between sides of dessert and pan, and remove sides of pan before serving. If desired, spread additional whipped cream on top and sides.
Makes 16 servings.
NOTE: Other Jello flavors may be used instead of those suggested in recipe, forming any combination of colors desired. Can also use two 9-inch piepans instead of spring form pan.
