Are you ready for some football?! I sure am! I’m collaborating once again with my blogging BFFS to bring you a huge round up of team-themed football recipes. So many fun ideas! You’ll find them all below the recipe.
Now that we’re on a new diet, I have to re-think pretty much anything I used to make and work it into a low-carb option instead. These jello shot gummies are a favorite whether you make them with alcohol, without alcohol, or low-carb/sugar-free.
I made these often for parties back in college, and it was always nice to have the jello “shots” be stand-alone gummies rather than buying tons of those little plastic cups that made it hard to get the Jello out. Plus you can make a ton of them quickly, and then re-use your mold to make a lot in one go if you plan to have a crowd over. The only down side to making these cute little gummy jello shots is that you and your guests have to remember that there is alcohol in them, and they should be eaten responsibly. (They also should be kept away from any kiddos.)
If you’re not one for shots, they’re also a lot of fun even without alcohol – hubby loves the sugar-free version as a low-carb dessert or sweet snack. I used a silicone star mold for mine that I had on hand, but you can make these in any mold you can find at your grocery or craft store. (Or Amazon!) And since you can make them in pretty much any flavor, shape, or color-combo, you can adapt them for any event or party you can think of!
