Milk jellies are a delightful and creamy dessert that combines the smoothness of milk with the light texture of gelatin. This easy-to-make treat requires only five ingredients and can be prepared in just a few simple steps. It's perfect for those who enjoy a mildly sweet and refreshing dessert that's not too heavy.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, add 2 tablespoons of the measured milk. Sprinkle the gelatin powder evenly over the milk and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom (absorb the liquid).
- In a medium saucepan, combine the remaining milk and sugar. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly until the milk is warm and the sugar has completely dissolved. Do not let the milk come to a boil.
- Once the milk is warm and the sugar has dissolved, remove the saucepan from the heat. Add the bloomed gelatin mixture to the warm milk and stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved and there are no lumps.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the light sour cream until smooth. Gradually pour the warm milk and gelatin mixture into the sour cream, stirring continuously to ensure a smooth consistency. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
- For a silky smooth texture, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a clean bowl or jug, removing any lumps or undissolved gelatin.
- Pour the mixture into individual serving molds or a large mold, depending on your preference. You can use ramekins, silicone molds, or even small glasses.
- Carefully transfer the molds to the refrigerator. Allow the milk jellies to chill for at least 4 hours or until they are firm and set.
- Once set, remove the milk jellies from the refrigerator. If using molds, gently run a knife around the edges to loosen, then invert onto a serving plate. If using glasses, you can serve directly from the glasses.
- Garnish with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired. Serve chilled and enjoy!
Tips:
- Ensure that the milk is just warm enough to dissolve the gelatin but not boiling, as high temperatures can destroy the gelatin's setting properties.
- To avoid lumps, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the milk evenly and let it sit for a few minutes before stirring.
- Use a whisk to blend the milk and gelatin mixture thoroughly for a smooth consistency.
- For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of almond extract or a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
- Chill the mixture in individual serving molds or cups for a fancier presentation, and top with fresh berries or a drizzle of honey before serving.
