ello

Ingredients (list of both Part I and II combined):
- 4 envelopes of Knox unflavored gelatin
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 1/2 cup cold coffee
- 1 can of sweetened condensed milk
- 4 1/2 cups hot coffee
- 1/3 cup sugar
Part I (Milk Coffee Mixture):
- 2 envelopes of Knox unflavored gelatin
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 1 can of sweetened condensed milk
- 1 1/2 cup of hot coffee (strength depends on preference)
1. Bloom the gelatin in the 1/2 cup of cold water.*
2. Pour hot coffee into the gelatin and mix until dissolved.
3. Add the sweetened condensed milk and stir until dissolved.
4. Set until it cools to room temperature.
Part II (Black Coffee Mixture):
- 2 envelopes of Knox unflavored gelatin
- 1/2 cup cold coffee
- 3 cups hot coffee (strength depends on preference)
- 1/3 cup of sugar (sweetness depends on preference so you can add more or less)
1. Bloom the gelatin in 1/2 cup of cold coffee.
2. Add sugar into coffee until desired sweetness.
3. Pour coffee and sugar mixture into the gelatin and mix until dissolved.
4. Set until it cools to room temperature.

This layer is too thin; even 2.5 c of water is too thin
Assemble:
1. When both mixtures are cooled to room temperature, pour a cup (using a liquid measuring cup) of the black coffee mixture into a 9×13 pan and refrigerate it for at least 20 minutes.
2. When ready, pour in a cup of milk coffee mixture, and set in fridge.
3. Repeat this process until you have three layers of milk and three of black.
4. Combine what is left of both mixtures and pour over the top (mixture will be very thin) and refrigerate until ready to serve.
5. Cut into small blocks or into bite-sized cubes.
Note: If mixtures firm up during the waiting process, then put the bowl over a pot of hot water for a few seconds at a time until it comes back to liquid state
