I’m on this never ending quest to try and regain control of my Recipe Binder. It is the bottomless pit of doom–or so it appears.
I was flipping through it trying to find some snacks/desserts to go with this week’s menu, and I stumbled across an old favorite.
If I’m not mistaking this comes from the Quick Cooking Magazine (which is now known as Simple & Delicious). It is low in fat, simply easy, and incredibly delicious!
No one will know that this dessert took only 5 minutes to make!
Ingredients
- 1 pkg fat free cream cheese
- 1 (6oz) can of frozen orange juice
- 1 (8oz) carton reduced fat whipped topping-thawed
- 1 reduced fat graham cracker crust (or you can use homemade)
- 1 (11 oz) can mandarin oranges
Instructions
- Combine cream cheese and orange juice concentrate until smooth.
- Fold in the whipped topping and pour mixture into graham cracker crust.
- Cover and freeze for 4 hours or until solid.
- Garnish with mandarin oranges before serving
Notes
Try these fun combinations!
*Frozen Pineapple Juice with chopped pineapple topping *Frozen Fruit Punch with cherries on top *What about Limeade? Mmmmm... *White Grape peach juice with peaches on the top *Or even Raspberry juice, with fresh raspberries for the topping
What combinations can you come up with?

I don’t need to come up with another combination. This is good enough. I love orange and then you have cream cheese with it. Thank you so much for this recipe!
I make something similar to this. It’s wonderful!
