Ingredients

5/8 ounce sugar-free cherry gelatin
2 cups boiling water
2 cups ice cold water
1 pint heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons almond extract

Directions

1

Make the gelatin according to package directions: add boiling water to gelatin and mix until completely dissolved.
2

Add the cold water and almond extract.
3

Chill for 20 minutes in the refrigerator.
4

Whip the cream till stiff.
5

Be careful not to overbeat (it becomes whipped butter. Instead you want gentle peaks).
6

Add the whipping cream to the gelatin.
7

For a stiffer, jello-like consistency simply mix with a spoon.
8

For a flufflier consistency more like light mousse, use an electric mixer and mix the cream with the jello until frothy.
