Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Red jello mix
Cool whip
Karo syrup
Dk red wine or grape juice

Here is the outline for something I saw this morning on Geraldo (by
accident) that was done by Penn Teller. It's more of a macabre
show-off desert, but I laughed my ass off when I saw it.

Okay, start off by making some Jell-O, preferably strawberry or
cherry or some other flavor that's naturally red. But, use two to
three times as much Jell-O mix as you normally would, to thicken up
the consistency. After this is mixed, stir in some cool whip, and
pour it into your favorite standard party mold (the dome kind would
be good).

Get a CLEAN plastic bag (inside and out) and place in it some Karo
syrup. Now add something like a very dark red wine, or grape juice.
What you want is a semi-thick VERY dark red (opaque) liquid which
looks not unlike blood. Starting to get the picture yet?

Okay, now place this bag in the mold, so that the bag is still
floating on top. Keep in mind that you want the Jell-O plus the bag
to completely fill the mold, but have a level surface, as this thing
is going to flip over later on. Put it in the fridge, and allow it
to chill and set.

When you take it out of the refrigerator, you should decorate it a
little. Try drizeling some chocolate glaze on top and poping a couple
of strawberries or cherries on top of this. Allow to set if
necessary, and then bring it out to your dinner guests.

At this point, your dinner guests will probably be oo'ing and ah'ing
over this rather nice dessert you've brought out to them. Make sure
you've got that big pointy butcher knife in one hand as you set this
beauty down on the table.

Now you get to play Norman Bates: cut into the side of this, making
sure you go deep enough to cut into the bag real wide. As you
continue to cut out a piece of the geltin mold, the bag will leak
into this, and your bewildered guests will think your dessert is
_BLEEDING_. Not to disappoint them, cut out one of these bloody
pieces of geletin and plop it down on a plate. If you're lucky, it
will look like a recently-extracted body organ.

Yes, this is gross. Yes, I wouldn't bring this to the typical dinner
party. Yes, I probably have a *very* warped sense of humor. But, I
laughed quite loudly when I saw this being done by Penn Teller. At
the very least, it might be fun for a Halloween party...
