Original recipe yields 9 servings

2-1/2 cups boiling water, divided

2 pkg. (3 oz. each) JELL-O Orange Flavor Gelatin

2 pkg. (3 oz. each) JELL-O Grape Flavor Gelatin

2 oz. BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate

1-1/2 cups thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping

Let's Make It

Add 1-1/4 cups boiling water to orange gelatin mixes in medium bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Pour into 8-inch square pan sprayed with cooking spray. Repeat with remaining boiling water and grape gelatin mixes. Refrigerate 3 hours or until firm.

Meanwhile, melt chocolate as directed on package; cool slightly. Pour into small resealable plastic bag; seal bag. Cut small piece off one bottom corner of bag; use to squeeze chocolate onto waxed-paper covered baking sheets to make 9 spider webs or other Halloween shapes. Refrigerate until chocolate is firm.

Cut gelatin in each pan into 1/2-inch cubes. Layer orange gelatin cubes, half the COOL WHIP and grape gelatin cubes in 9 (6-oz.) plastic cups. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Top parfaits with remaining COOL WHIP and chocolate decorations just before serving.

Kitchen Tips

Tip 1

Special Extra

Before filling cups, pipe 1 oz. melted chocolate onto inside of each cup to make a design or write a spooky message, such as "boo." Refrigerate cups until chocolate is firm, then fill as directed.

Tip 2

How to Make Spider Webs

For spider webs, use 2 oz. melted chocolate to draw a cross on waxed paper-covered baking sheet, then draw an "x" on the center of the cross; connect all ends of lines with additional melted chocolate to resemble a spider's web.

Tip 3

How to Make Ghosts

Drop COOL WHIP by spoonfuls onto each dessert to resemble a ghost. Add 2 miniature chocolate chips to each for the eyes.
