Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Orange juice
• 1 tablespoon Orange zest
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 packet Unflavored gelatin
• 0.25 cup Hot water
• 1 cup Whipped topping (optional, for garnish)
• 6 slices Orange slices (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the unflavored gelatin with 0.25 cup hot water. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy using a hand or stand mixer.

Step 3

Gradually add the granulated sugar to the cream cheese while beating, ensuring the mixture stays smooth. Then blend in the orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Pour the dissolved gelatin into the cream cheese mixture, making sure to stir well to evenly distribute it.

Step 5

In a separate cold bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form using a hand mixer or stand mixer. Be careful not to overwhip.

Step 6

Gently fold the whipped cream into the orange cream mixture, being careful to maintain the light, airy texture.

Step 7

Pour the mixture evenly into six dessert cups or glasses and smooth the tops with a spatula.

Step 8

Refrigerate the dessert cups for at least 4 hours or until the mixture is fully set. Overnight chilling is recommended for the best texture.

Step 9

Before serving, optionally top each dessert with a dollop of whipped topping and an orange slice for garnish.
