The quart of milk with only a few ounces of sugar needs additional sweetener.
Yes, why does it need the added sugar at all?
can gelatin be replaced by chia seeds?
I have grandchildren who are allergic to nuts. I think soy milk should be a good substitute. What do you think.
Hmmm, puzzling that you found it grainy. I am not sure what the melting chocolate is, but if it was melted and smooth it should have been find. Maybe the gelatin was the problem, try it with a different brand and make sure the sugar is fully dissolved in the milk.
so, i made this last week and while the taste was good the chocolate dessert felt grainy. I used the new melting choc that comes in coin form (parve) in little tubs. I also can’t say for sure I used that exact brand of gelatin. What do you think. I followed the recipe exactly.
I would think coconut milk would work, try it and let us know. Clear jello is any flavorless variety, often called Unflavored. Harmony uses Gefe, but I really only get good results for any recipe with Kolatin Gelatin, I highty recommend trying to find that brand.
2 questions: can you make this with coconut milk and what flavor is “clear” Jello? Thanks.
The box, not the refrigerated Blue Diamond is pareve. Trader Joe’s own brand, boxed in all flavors and plain, is also pareve. I didn’t have any clear Jello, so I used rasberry..it was wonderful Thanks Tamar for this and all of your great recipes.
Thank you. Will try it and let you know.
I can’t say for sure, but I think sugar substitute should work.
Can you tell me if I can make this with sugar substitute, or lower the sugar. This is for a diabetic guest. Thanks
The Vanilla also has lot more sugar and a different flavor. Stick to the plain in this recipe.
not all blue diamond is pareve…the vanilla blue diamond says it is dairy
Blue Diamond is pareve and I find it at most supermarkets.
My Almond Milk says it is Dairy, what brand is Pareve?
