My fiance, Jhony, loves Rainbow Jello. He's not much of a sweet tooth - despite all the baked goods I make. Although this dessert is rather time consuming, it's a good thing to make for those who don't like their desserts too sweet.
I only used three flavors here because that's what we had, but feel free to use more to make more layers if you wish.

- boxes of jello in whatever flavors or colors you want
- cool whip
Note: The jello that I had was a mexican brand that comes in large packets that requires 4 cups of water for each one. So I only did three colors since each packet made so much jello.
Add one packet of Jello to boiling water (however much the instructions say to use). Stir for 2 - 3 minutes to dissolve completely. Pour 2/3 of the jello into the prepared pan, and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, add about 1/2 cup of Cool Whip to the remaining 1/3 of the jello and stir to completely melt the Cool whip. When the first layer has set for 15 minutes, carefully pour the Jello/Cool Whip mixture over it and chill for another 15 minutes.
Repeat with remaining colors. Once all layers have been poured, allow to chill for at least 2 hours.
Cut into squares and serve!
