Prep Time:20 mins

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Fresh orange juice
  • 2 teaspoons Orange zest
  • 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder
  • 2 tablespoons Water
  • 4 pieces Orange slices
  • 2 sprigs Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the gelatin powder with 2 tablespoons of water. Stir to bloom the gelatin and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh orange juice, orange zest, granulated sugar, and cornstarch. Whisk continuously until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil. This will take about 3-5 minutes.

Step 3

Once thickened, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until it fully dissolves. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.

Step 4

While the orange mixture is cooling, whip the heavy whipping cream. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.

Step 5

Gently fold the cooled orange mixture into the whipped cream. Use a spatula to fold in parts of the orange mixture in batches, ensuring a smooth and airy consistency.

Step 6

Spoon the Double Orange Delight mixture into individual serving glasses or bowls. Smooth the tops and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Step 7

Before serving, garnish with a fresh orange slice and a sprig of mint for a pop of color and added freshness.

Step 8

Enjoy your chilled Double Orange Delight!
