Orange creamsicle salad takes the classic flavors of the beloved popsicle and serves it up in a vintage fluff salad.

Ingredients

For the Salad:

  • 3 ounces orange-flavored gelatin
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • ½ cup cold water
  • 3.4 ounces vanilla instant pudding
  • 8 ounces whipped topping, thawed
  • 28 ounces mandarin oranges, drained (reserve 8 to 10 for garnish)
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • ¼ cup mini marshmallows for optional garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Gelatin: In a medium-sized heat-safe bowl, stir together the orange-flavored gelatin and boiling water until dissolved.
  2. Add Pudding: Stir in the cold water. Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Whisk in the instant vanilla pudding and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Fold in the whipped topping, mandarin oranges, and mini marshmallows. Chill for 2 hours or overnight.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish with reserved mandarin oranges and mini marshmallows.

Notes

  • You can adjust the quantity of oranges and mini marshmallows, but the balance may be affected.
  • For best flavor, let the salad chill for a few hours before serving.
  • Leftover salad can be frozen in popsicle molds or a baking dish for a creamy treat.
