Joan's Jello

Source: My aunt, Joan Fullmer (hence the name!)

Ingredients:
3 3oz packages apricot jell-o (I often can't find apricot jello, so I've also used raspberry before which made a lovely raspberry-lemonade type flavor - so you can be creative with your jello flavors, I think it's pretty forgiving!)
3 cups boiling water
3 cups cool water
1 3 oz package lemon cook and serve jell-o pudding
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
2 egg yokes, beaten
2 cups water

Directions:
Prepare apricot jell-o according to package directions. (Which are: add 3 cups boiling water to gelatin mix; stir 2 minutes until completely dissolved.  Stir in 3 cups cold water.)  Prepare lemon pudding according to pie directions.  (Which are: stir pudding mix, sugar, 1/4 cup water and egg yolks in medium saucepan.  Stir in 2 cups water.  Bring to full boil on medium heat, stirring constantly.  Cool 5 minutes, stirring twice.)

Pour cooked pudding mixture into large bowl with dissolved apricot jello.  Mix until homogenized.  Chill until set.

Notes:
This is a perfectly lovely summer-time treat that has graced many a family party.  I decided to make a batch for when my family came to visit over Cal's birthday.  Yum!
