I love this time of year and all the opportunities to sprinkle in a little wonder and excitement for my kids! We just moved so many of our normal Christmas traditions or holiday celebrations have been put on hold while we try to settle back into a routine, but I still want to create fun moments for my kids to enjoy. These Mistletoe Jello treats are a fun way to add a festive touch to holiday parties, play dates or a special after dinner treat. I originally shared these tasty treats as part of Design Dazzles Christmas Wonderful series, but in case you missed it I’m sharing all the details (all three steps) with you!
And this treat is so easy to make so it won’t add to your already long to do list. Here is what you’ll need:
1 box of green Jell-o
Cool Whip
Mint
Red Hot candies
Make your Jell-o according to the directions on the box. Once it is set add a dollop of cool whip on top. Add a few mint leaves and three red hot candies to complete your Mistletoe Jello.
This Mistletoe Jello treat is sure to make your kids pucker up and give you a big kiss. Serve and enjoy a little holiday cheer!

This is really adorable. I bet it would look cute with red jelllo as well – maybe marshmallows as poinsettia leaves?
Thanks Melissa! Yes, I think red jello would be fun too. You’ll have to let me know if you try it that way. 🙂
Adorable! You are very creative.
You are too sweet, thank you Sarah!
What an adorable idea- this will be perfect for our Christmas Movie Night dessert!
Thank you Lauren, it is a fun holiday treat and your Christmas Movie Night sounds like lots of fun!
Where did you get those little cups? They are adorable
Hi Kelly! I actually found those at an antique shop, they were called “French Yogurt Jars.”
Those new yogurt jars by Yoplait, oui could be used too, maybe. Or even if you are a candler you could make a mini candle. I use mine to old pens in at the office and home.
