Frozen Orange Cream Pie


I watched an episode of Down Home with the Neely's and they made a Frozen Lemonade Pie, that looked delicous, and because "necessity is the mother of invention" I came us with my own yummy looking twist for lack of Lemonade. :) I was so proud of myself making a real graham cracker crust too! It was my first time, and it really wasn't that hard. This was a good recipe for that! I was happy with the results. It reminded me of a big orange dream sickle. Mmmmm...

Frozen Orange Cream Pie

Graham Cracker Crust:

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 7 tablespoons butter, melted

Orange filling:

  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, chilled
  • 1 (12 ounce) container whip topping, thawed
  • 1 (6 fluid ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate, keep frozen
  • 1 can of mandrine oranges

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In medium bowl, combine cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup of sugar, and the melted butter. Press firmly on bottom and up sides of pie plate. Bake for 7 minutes and let cool completely.

In a medium bowl, add chilled sweetened condensed milk and cool whip and fold gently. Add frozen lemonade and continue to gently fold. Do not let the mixture become soupy. Pour mixture into the pie crust and freeze overnight. Garnish with mandrine oranges.
