Instructions

Prepare the Biscuit Crust

Grind the Marie biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or blender.
Transfer the biscuit crumbs to a bowl.
Add the melted unsalted butter to the biscuit crumbs and mix thoroughly until well combined.

Assemble the Dessert

Divide the biscuit mixture evenly between two glasses or dessert dishes.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of each glass to form a crust.
Refrigerate the glasses for at least one hour to allow the crust to set.

Prepare the Hung Curd Layer

In a mixing bowl, combine the hung curd (Greek yogurt), sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract.
Whisk until smooth and creamy.

Layer and Freeze

Spoon the hung curd mixture evenly over the chilled biscuit crust in each glass.
Freeze for at least 2 hours, or until the curd layer is firm.

Prepare and Add the Jelly Layer

Prepare the jelly according to the package instructions. Usually, this involves dissolving the jelly powder in boiling water.
Once the jelly is completely dissolved and slightly cooled, carefully pour it over the frozen curd layer in each glass.
Refrigerate for 15 minutes, or until the jelly sets.

Garnish and Serve

Garnish the layered jelly ice cream with chopped dry fruits.
Serve immediately and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Layered Jelly Ice Cream Success

For a smoother curd layer, strain the hung curd (Greek yogurt) through a cheesecloth for a few hours to remove excess whey.
Adjust the sweetness of the curd layer to your liking by adding more or less sweetened condensed milk.
Get creative with jelly flavors! Strawberry, raspberry, or even mango jelly would create delicious variations.
For a more sophisticated presentation, use elegant dessert glasses or small bowls. You can also layer in additional elements like chocolate shavings or fresh berries.
