Orange Creamsicle Dessert

This no-bake dessert is easy to make and tastes exactly like an orange creamsicle pop!

I first came upon this dessert last winter in a blog link party I co-hosted. I’ve wanted to make it ever since but kept forgetting to buy the gelatin dessert.

The recipe on the link party was contributed by Wanda of Memories By The Mile. I was surprised when she said this is actually classified as a salad!

Tastes just like a creamsicle pop

Salad or dessert, it’s spectacular. To me, it tasted like an orange creamsicle pop which I’ve always loved since I was a kid, so I gave this a new name because I think it’s a bit more descriptive of the flavor–at least to me.

I’m certain that sugar-free products and reduced-fat products can be substituted here. I don’t recommend fat-free products since sometimes what’s put in to replace the fat doesn’t play nice with other ingredients. However, you’re fairly safe with the reduced varieties.

Attractive presentation too

I used a Pyrex pan for this. You can use stoneware/ceramic as well, but I wouldn’t use metal because of the acidity here and it may produce a dessert with a metallic flavor.

      Sure, it will work. The dessert will just be a bit flatter but it should be set faster.
