Looking for a vibrant, playful treat that’s as fun to make as it is to eat? These Fun & Easy Jello Roll Ups are a kid-approved, party-perfect snack that adds a pop of color and sweetness to any celebration.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 (3 oz) box of flavored Jello – Pick your favorite! Strawberry, grape, lime, blue raspberry—any color and flavor will work.

  • ½ cup hot water – For dissolving the gelatin.

  • 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows – These melt to give the roll ups their signature chewy texture and help them set.

Optional toppings and extras:

  • Sprinkles for decoration

  • Sugar crystals for texture

  • A second Jello flavor for a two-tone swirl effect

Instructions

Step 1: Prep your pan
Line an 8×8 inch square pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. This helps the roll ups release easily once set.

Step 2: Mix the Jello and water
In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk the Jello powder with ½ cup of hot water until fully dissolved.

Step 3: Add marshmallows
Stir in 1 ½ cups of mini marshmallows. Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute.

Step 4: Whisk until smooth
After microwaving, whisk the mixture vigorously until all the marshmallows are fully melted and the mixture is foamy and slightly thickened.

Step 5: Pour into the pan
Immediately pour the mixture into your prepared dish and tilt gently to spread it evenly. The layer should be thin and smooth.

Step 6: Chill to set
Place the pan in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 30–45 minutes, or until firm to the touch.

Step 7: Slice and roll
Once set, lift the sheet out of the pan. Use a sharp knife or kitchen scissors to slice into long strips (about 1 inch wide). Gently roll each strip into a spiral.

Step 8: Serve or store
Place the roll ups seam-side down on a tray or plate. Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container until ready to enjoy.

Notes

se parchment paper. It ensures your roll ups don’t stick and makes lifting and rolling super easy.

Mix thoroughly. Undissolved Jello or marshmallow chunks can cause uneven texture, so whisk well after microwaving.

Chill completely. Rushing the chilling process may lead to a sticky mess when slicing.

Use kitchen scissors for clean strips. If the knife sticks, run it under hot water and dry before slicing.
