Vegan Jell-O

This recipe is super simple and awesome, I can't believe I went jell-o-less for so long!

Tools
1 cup measure (or eyeball it)
1 tbsp measure (or eyeball it)
Microwaveable container to hold the jell-o
Microwave

Ingredients
1 20oz Sprite
Flavoring - I used a cherry mixer
Water (if desired)
4tbsp Agar Agar flakes (or 4tsp powder)

Directions
1) Measure out 4c of liquid - try 2c water, 1c Sprite and 1c flavoring, then adjust to taste. Take out 1 cup of liquid and set aside (helps prevent spills if your container is really full).
2) Add the agar agar flakes and mix
3) Microwave the solution for 5 to 10 minutes, mixing every 3 minutes or so until the agar agar is completely dissolved (be careful - if the agar agar isn't dissolved your jell-o will be lumpy; if this happens just reheat the jell-o, mix it, and cool it again). Add the rest of the liquid.
4) Chill in the fridge for a few hours.
5) Enjoy!

Super Bowl Cake

I know it's been forever, but I did want to share this Super Bowl cake. I made three thin layers, stacked them on top of each other, and frosted with green and yellow frosting. The goal posts are made from straws. Delish!
