Notes

Tips:

Do not garnish the jello shots if you’re not getting ready to serve them. Garnish just before serving. The red hots and sanding sugar like to melt into the cool whip if left to sit for too long.

If you would like to make these in advance, you can store them in the fridge, covered and ungarnished, for up to 3 days. I wouldn’t store them too long as they can start to dry out.

Do not overfill your shots as it makes it more difficult to transport them to the fridge.

Serving with mini spoons will help people eat the shots easier, if you’re using the glass shot glasses and not the plastic ones.
