INGREDIENTS

MAKE IT

Step 1

For both gelatins: Sprinkle the gelatin in hot water in separate bowls and mix to dissolve. Set aside.

Step 2

Chocolate Gelatin: Heat the milk with the evaporated milk and the condensed milk, and when it starts to boil mix in NESTLÉ® ABUELITA™ Granulated Chocolate Drink Mix and stir until it is incorporated; remove from the heat. Stir in the gelatin mixture until it is completely incorporated. Set aside.

Step 3

Banana Gelatin: Blend evaporated milk, milk, bananas, sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour gelatin mixture into the banana mixture and blend again to incorporate.

Step 4

Pour half of chocolate gelatin mixture in a mold. Place in refrigerator to firm for 45 minutes. Pour all of banana gelatin mixture over chocolate mixture and place back in the fridge for 1 hour. Pour remaining half of chocolate mixture over banana mixture and refrigerate until completely set a minimum of 3 hours. Unmold and sprinkle the top with salted peanuts, if desired.
