ORANGE MOUSSE PIE

So creamy and delicious! Like a dream-sicle in a slice of pie!

Provided by Terrie Hoelscher

Categories     Pies

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

CRUST
1 refrigerated pie crust [from a 15-oz box], softened to room temp
FILLING
1 env. unflavored gelatin
3/4 c orange juice
1 pkg [8-oz] cream cheese
1 c powdered sugar
1 tsp grated orange zest [only the orange part of the peel, not the white, pithy part]
12 oz lite or sugar-free cool whip, thawed
1 can(s) mandarin oranges, 12 oz.
save your orange peel, to make curls out of the peel for garnish!
TIP: CAN USE TWO LARGE ORANGES, PEELED, SEEDED, JUICED AND COARSELY CHOPPED, IN PLACE OF THE PRE-MADE ORANGE JUICE AND CANNED MANDARIN ORANGES.

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 450°. Once you have softened one pie crust according to package directions and placed into a 9" glass pie plate, bake crust for 15 minutes. Use a pie crust weight (I use white rice, poured into foil, to loosely line the crust), or prick the pie crust, so it doesn't bow up while baking. COOL COMPLETELY. Also make sure the pie plate itself is completely cool, so the heat doesn't merge up thru the crust and is then trapped under the filling once you pour it in. It will ruin your crust, if it's not completely cool.
  • 2. In a 1-qt. saucepan, mix unflavored gelatin and orange juice. Allow to stand for 1 - 2 minutes.
  • 3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and orange zest with an electric mixer on med. speed, until smooth and fluffy. Set aside.
  • 4. After gelatin/orange juice have stood to soften for a couple of minutes, cook over med. heat, until gelatin is dissolved. Remove from heat. Set aside to cool. NOTE: at this point, I set the pan of hot gelatin/orange juice into an ice-water bath, and stir it every couple of minutes, so it will not be too hot when I pour it into the cream cheese mixture, in step 5.
  • 5. After the softened/cooked gelatin & orange juice mixture is somewhat cooled (tepid to the touch), blend it into the cream cheese mixture, using the hand mixer. Refrigerate until slightly thickened, about 10 mins.
  • 6. Fold the thawed cool whip into the orange mixture; gently fold in chopped oranges, making sure to mix it well.
  • 7. Spoon all of this into the COMPLETELY COOLED crust.
  • 8. Refrigerate until firm, about an hour, or more, if necessary. Garnish with orange peel curls (optional).

SUNSHINE MOUSSE PIE



Sunshine Mousse Pie image

This is a no-bake pie that is light, tart, and delicious, sort of an orange cream cheese mousse. It's great as a summer dessert topped with some whipped cream. At the end of the directions you'll find suggestions for other fruit variations. I found the recipe on a box of knox gelatin.

Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
1 cup whipping cream or 1 cup heavy cream, heated to boiling
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (6 ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 9 inch graham cracker pie crust

Steps:

  • Pour the cold water into a blender and sprinkle with the gelatin.
  • Let stand for 1 minute.
  • Add the hot cream and process at low speed until gelatin is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the cream cheese, juice concentrate, sugar and vanilla; process until blended.
  • Chill until mixture is slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
  • Pour into crust and chill until firm.
  • Garnish with slices of orange, lime, or other fresh fruit.
  • (If you take a slice of fruit and make a cut in it from the center to the outside, you can then twist it to make a pretty garnish.) NOTE: Instead of orange, you can make this with frozen lemonaide, limeaide, tangerine juice, frozen pina colada mix, strawberry concentrate, etc.
  • If you do use a sweetened concentrate like lemonaide, cut the added confectioner's sugar in half.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use frozen or canned oranges, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Make sure the gelatin is completely dissolved before adding it to the mixture. Otherwise, you will have lumps of gelatin in your mousse.
  • Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the mousse to set properly.
  • Garnish the mousse with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries before serving. This will make your mousse look more festive.
