Equipment

Ingredients

6 oz pkg lemon Jell-O
1 cup boiling water
3 cups 7-up
2-3 bananas sliced
1 ½ cup miniature marshmallows
20 oz can crushed pineapple drained—save the juice
1 cup pineapple juice you saved add water to make 1 cup
1 egg well beaten
½ cup sugar
1 Tbsp cornstarch
1 cup whipping cream whipped

Instructions

Dissolve in Jello in the boiling water.
Add the 7-Up to the Jello and let set until slightly thickened in fridge. (I think I waited 20-30 minutes)
Fold the bananas, marshmallows, and pineapple into the thickened Jello and pour into a 9 x 13 pan. Place in the fridge and let the Jello set completely while you prepare the topping.
In a sauce pan, combine the reserved pineapple juice, egg, sugar, and cornstarch. Mix and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook until thick. Allow mixture to cool.
Fold whipping cream into the cooled juice mixture and spread on top of set Jell-0.
