Holiday Jello Salad

3 oz Jello packets:
Black Cherry
Raspberry
Strawberry

Orange
Lemon
Lime

1 1/2 cartons sour cream

For each layer, do the following:

Add 1 cup boiling water to jello. When it is dissolved, pour ½ cup into separate dish and set aside. In the remainder, add 2 TBS water and pour into rectangle pyrex. Put in fridge. When set up, add 1/2 cup sour cream to the remaining 1/2 cup of jello. Mix thoroughly with a wire whip. Pour over the clear set of jello and chill. Do this with each different flavor of jello starting with the black cherry to lime, in order.

Start the night before to allow plenty of time for set up. The first 2-3 layers go quickly, but the last few layers take longer to set up.

HINT: If the jello for the sour cream starts to set up on the counter, put it in the microwave for a few seconds to melt again before adding the sour cream.
