Orange Dreamsicle Salad
A sweet, creamy, and refreshing dessert salad that’s perfect for any gathering! This Orange Dreamsicle Salad brings the nostalgic flavor of an orange creamsicle into a delicious, easy-to-make treat.
Ingredients:
1 box orange Jell-O
1 box instant vanilla pudding
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water
1 container (8 oz) Cool Whip
1 can (14 oz) mandarin oranges, drained
Instructions:
Prepare the Jell-O:
In a large bowl, dissolve the orange Jell-O in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until fully dissolved.
Add Cold Water:
Stir in 1/2 cup of cold water and let the mixture cool for a few minutes.
Add Instant Pudding Mix:
Once the Jell-O mixture has cooled slightly, whisk in the instant vanilla pudding mix. Stir until the pudding is well blended into the Jell-O mixture.
Chill:
Place the bowl in the fridge for about 30 minutes to allow the mixture to thicken slightly.
Fold in the Cool Whip:
After the mixture has set a bit, fold in the Cool Whip until it’s completely incorporated and smooth.
Add Mandarins:
Gently fold in the drained mandarin oranges. Be careful not to break up the orange segments too much.
Chill and Serve:
Place the salad back in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours, or until fully chilled and set. Serve chilled and enjoy!
Tips:
If you want to add a little extra flair, you can top the salad with a few extra mandarin orange slices or a sprinkle of shredded coconut.
For a creamier texture, consider folding in a little more Cool Whip to the mixture if you prefer a thicker, fluffier consistency.
