ORANGE-PINEAPPLE DELIGHT



Orange-Pineapple Delight image

I was just tickled with this recipe. Many years ago I had a similar recipe that used fresh strawberries and strawberry jello; it was very pretty and very tasty and I was sad when I lost my copy. But I like orange-pineapple even more than strawberries, so this recipe, found in a Jell-O cookbook, is a newfound treasure! Serve as a sweet salad, or a dessert. Perfect for a potluck or bbq.

ORANGE DELIGHT JELLO SALAD



Orange Delight Jello Salad image

While there appears to be a huge variety of Orange Delight salads out there, I have yet to run across one made exactly the way we make it in our home. My mom received the recipe from a co-worker probably 40+ years ago. Even after a heavy meal, this is a really refreshing dessert. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Provided by Onalee Austin

Categories     Fruit Desserts

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large orange jello-o (or 2 small boxes)
2 c boiling water
6 oz frozen orange juice concentrate
8 oz crushed pineapple (can be packed in juice or water - do not drain)
2 can(s) mandarin oranges (11 oz ea) - drain
1 small vanilla or french vanilla instant pudding (we have always preferred french vanilla)
8 or 9 oz cool whip
1 c cold milk

Steps:

  • 1. For jello mixture: Bring water to a boil, add Jell-O, stirring until clear. Remove from heat. Add frozen orange juice concentrate and stir until melted. Stir in mandarin oranges and pineapple. Pour into an 11 x 7 dish and refrigerate overnight or until the jello mixture has completely set.
  • 2. For Topping: Mix pudding with milk until it starts to set up. Be sure to use only 1 cup of milk, as listed in the ingredients. You don't want to make actual pudding. Fold in Cool Whip and spread over top of jello mixture.
  • 3. Optional: Put mandarin orange slices on top for color. Add crushed pecans for added texture, color, etc.

APPLE, ORANGE, AND YOGURT DELIGHT



Apple, Orange, and Yogurt Delight image

I make these the night before for my husband and I to grab and go the next day. The acid in the mandarin oranges keeps the apples from turning brown. Sometimes, I'll add half a banana to each one for more fruit. I either use nonfat vanilla yogurt or plain nonfat Greek yogurt with a little vanilla extract mixed in. And I don't peel the apples for the extra fiber. It's so simple to make....if you can cut up fruit, then you can have this simple recipe!

Provided by CookingBlues

Categories     Breakfast

Time 5m

Yield 2 containers, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, partially drained and reserve juice
1 medium granny smith apple, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 cup nonfat vanilla yogurt, divided
1/2 cup wheat germ, divided
2 teaspoons honey, divided

Steps:

  • Mix the partially drained Mandarin oranges and the chunked apple together. Here is where you can add half a banana too. If you like more juice, spoon some of the reserved juice into the mixture to make sure the apple is coated. This acid stops the apple from turning brown overnight.
  • Divide the fruit mixture into 2 containers.
  • Top each container with 1/2 cup of vanilla yogurt (or you can use plain yogurt with a bit of vanilla extract stirred in for less sugar)
  • If you are going to enjoy this the next day, cover at this step and put in the fridge.
  • Top one container with 1/4 cup wheat germ and 1 teaspoon of honey before enjoying!

ORANGE DELIGHT CAKE



Orange Delight Cake image

Years ago, a co-worker of mine made this cake for one of our potlucks and it was pretty tasty. The recipe is simple and quick.

Provided by S I

Categories     Cakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 box orange cake mix
1 can(s) (21 oz) peach pie filling*
2 large eggs
1/2 c sour cream
1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 box (small) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 can(s) (20 oz) crushed pineapple, undrained
1 (8 oz) container cool whip whipped topping**

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Ignore the directions on the cake mix box and mix as follows: With a fork or large spoon, beat the cake mix, pie filling*, eggs and sour cream together for about 1 minute (Make sure it is well blended). Pour the mixture into an ungreased, parchment paper lined 10x16 inch jelly roll pan. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes. Let cool, in the pan, on a wire rack.
  • 2. In a large bowl, whip together the cream cheese, pudding mix and pineapple. Fold in the whipped topping, blend well. Spread the cream cheese mixture on the cooled cake and refrigerate until ready to serve. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
  • 3. * I like to chop up the peaches that are in the pie filling so there are more pieces throughout the cake instead of just large chunks here and there. ** I also like to use REAL whipped cream, as I'm not a huge fan of frozen whipped toppings, but the original recipe used Cool Whip (and mixed with the other ingredients, it tastes just fine).

ORANGE DELIGHT COOKIES RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Orange Delight Cookies Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by Gigirox

Number Of Ingredients 15

COOKIES:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup softened unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons orange zest
1/2 cup orange juice
ORANGE FROSTING:
2 1/2 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons orange zest
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons orange juice (I used closer to 2 1/2 tablespoons)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and slat into a medium bowl and set aside. In a stand mixer, cream butter and sugar on medium speed for several minutes until light and fluffy. Add the egg and orange zest and mix until combined. Add flour mixture and orange juice in three additions, alternation between the flour mixture and the juice. Drop tablespoons of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet at least 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and allow to cool on wire racks for at least 30 minutes before frosting. FROSTING: In a stand miner, cream butter and sugar at medium speed for several minutes until light and fluffy. Add orange zest and juice, and mix until smooth. Frost cooled cookies using a mini rubber spatula.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges: Fresh oranges yield the most flavorful juice and zest. If you can't find fresh oranges, you can use bottled or frozen orange juice, but the flavor will be slightly less intense.
  • Zest the oranges before juicing them: This will help release the essential oils from the orange peel, which will give your dessert a more intense orange flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake at the right temperature: The cake should be baked at a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Use a cream cheese frosting: A cream cheese frosting is the perfect complement to the orange flavor of the cake. You can also use a whipped cream or buttercream frosting, if you prefer.
  • Garnish the cake with orange zest or slices: This will add a pop of color and flavor to the cake.

Conclusion:

Orange Delight is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. Whether you like it simple or fancy, this cake is sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give Orange Delight a try.
