Fruit & Cream Jello Ring

This is a great dessert to bring to a party as it looks very festive and is enjoyed by young and old.

Jello mold from Tupperware.

Fruit Layer:
1 package plain gelatine or 21/2 tsp gelatine powder
2 cups water
1/2 cup sugar
1 small can cocktail fruits, drained
2 tablespoons lemon juice (about one medium lemon)

Mix gelatine and sugar in water and bring almost to a simmer.  Stir to melt gelatine, then add drained fruits and lemon juice..
Pour into a lightly greased Tupperware jelly ring mold and place in the fridge about one hour.
(To grease mold, pour a little vegetable oil onto a napkin and rub the insides of the mold.)

Cream Layer:
5 oz package flavored Jello - I usually use lemon or strawberry.  Pineapple flavor cannot be used as it reacts with milk and turns it into curds.
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup light cream or half n half.
Add jello to the cold milk and bring almost to a simmer.  Stir to melt.
Remove from heat, add in cream.

Pour cream layer over the fruit layer and chill 4 hours or overnight.
Turn out of mold onto serving plate.
