Brain Jello Halloween Fun

Halloween is just around the corner, which meant that it was time to bust out the brain mold and get busy making some slimy, bloody, gooey, delicious brain jello....

Boy, my kids were excited when they found out that we were going to make and EAT some brain (I know that sounds kind of nasty....hahaha...)

All you need to do is follow the instructions on the box to make the jello, and instead of putting it in your usual molds, let the Jello set in your awesome brain mold.

In case you are wondering why there is a piece of tape on my brain mold, a while back my kids decided that it was a good idea to use the mold as a stepping stool (not a good idea) and it ended up cracking the mold a little.....hahaha....

After the jello has set in the fridge, flip it over onto a plate and try to get it out of the mold if you can. Or you could just "eat the brains out" of the bowl if you want.

I learned the hard way that it was probably a good idea to use some cooking spray before pouring the Jello liquid into the mold.

Here is one of my very enthusiastic brain surgeon-SLASH-'brain'ivore who just couldn't wait to dig into the Jello brain :)
