Pour boiling water into blender, add jello. Cover and blend at low speed until jello is completely dissolved (about 30 sec). Combine cold water and ice cubes to make 1-1/4 cups, add to jello and stir until ice cubes are partially melted. Then add cool whip, blend at high speed for 30 sec. Pour into dessert glasses and chill about 30 min. This layers as it chills. Posted to Bakery-Shoppe Digest V1 #407 by "Keepsakes, Etc." on Nov 21, 1997
