~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I make this in my big 4 cup measuring cup, because it's easy to pour into little cups.
Completely dissolve jello in boiling water.
Add tequila & triple sec.
Pour into little plastic cups.
I put the little cups on a cookie sheet incase I spilled.
Now into the fridge.
I put them in a Tupperware container to help keep them safe from spillage in the fridge.
Oh yeah!! It's Margarita Jello Shot time!!!
I had to loosen them with a knife to be able to suck them out of the cup.
A little bit of work... but they're always fun!!
And on to the Margarita Cake!!
I actually posted this a while back. But I made them into cupcakes and frosted them.
