Set the jello aside to cool completely. This is important so that the warm jello doesn’t melt the pudding layer.
Once completely cooled, fill the cups the rest of the way with jello.
Move to the refrigerator and chill for 3 more hours.
Once jello is set, you are ready to serve.
Before serving, top with whipped cream, crushed Nilla wafers, and fresh strawberries.
