Measure out 1/2 cup of boiling water in a separate bowl then add 1 gelatin packet to the water, gently stirring.
1/2 cup (118ml) boiling water, 1 gelatin packet
Once combined, pour the water/gelatin mixture into the champagne and gently stir.
Divide the champagne jello into glasses. If you want the jello to set at an angle, place the glasses in a muffin or mini muffin pan at an angle to set in the refrigerator.
Once the champagne jello has set, begin to prepare the creamy layer.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and 1 cup of boiling water. Stir to combine.

To get the gold sprinkles to stick to the rim of the glass you just need a little corn syrup. Place a small amount of corn syrup in a shallow bowl, turn the glass upside down and dip the edge of the glass into the corn syrup.

Notes
The layers are quick and and easy to make - it's the setting of each layer that takes the most time. Depending on what size cups you use, you'll be able to make a lot of jello cups. When I used 5 oz glasses, I made about 12-15 cups.
