The cost per serving for this dessert is only 40 cents. However, just a few weeks ago, coupons.com ran a coupon on the main ingredient, Jell-O.  So, reducing your input costs for the food will lower this cost per serving dramatically.  Also, you could consider doing Jell-O circles, squares, or triangles to eliminate wasted Jell-O.  Remember, making your own food is one of the best ways to be frugal and save money.
