orange dreamsicle salad

This Orange Dreamsicle Salad tastes just like a creamsicle or Orange Julius. An easy, refreshing dessert that comes together in 15 minutes!

Orange Dreamsicle Salad (Cheesecake Salad Recipe)

cream cheese (softened)

vanilla extract

instant cheesecake pudding mix (unprepared)

orange juice concentrate

heavy whipping cream (divided)

sugar

oranges (drained)

marshmallows

In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and vanilla extract until fluffy.

Add the orange juice concentrate and beat until fully combined.

Add the cheesecake pudding mixture and beat until evenly incorporated (mixture will be slightly chunky).

With the mixer (or hand beater) running on low speed, slowly drizzle 1 ½ cups of the heavy whipping cream into the cream cheese mixture. Beat well between the addition of small amounts (add only a couple tablespoons at a time).

Add powdered sugar to the cheesecake mixture and continue beating until fully combined.

In a separate mixing bowl, beat remaining 1 ½ cups of heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

Use a spatula to gently fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture until fully incorporated.

Add miniature marshmallows and drained mandarin oranges to the cheesecake mixture and fold in gently to combine. (The mandarins break apart easily, so be slow and gentle.)

Transfer mixture to a serving bowl, garnish with reserved mandarins and miniature marshmallows and serve immediately.

Loved this dessert. Found it a little light on orange taste, but the addition of a teaspoon of orange extract cured that.

Meh. This was okay, but didn't taste like a dreamsicle at all, in my opinion. The combination of cheesecake pudding and cream cheese makes it taste more like a cheesecake. If I make it again, I believe I would switch to vanilla pudding.

This really was similar to an orange dreamsicle, very sweet and delicious.

A delightful and refreshing dish that combines the creamy goodness of marshmallows with the zesty tang of oranges, inspired by the classic Dreamsicle popsicle.

Orange Dreamsicle Salad

Mandarin oranges

orange gelatin

mini marshmallows

cottage cheese (or yogurt)

Cool Whip (or whipped cream)

Chopped nuts coconut

Drain the mandarin oranges and set aside.

Prepare the orange gelatin in a large mixing bowl according to the package instructions.

Fold in the mini marshmallows and cottage cheese once the gelatin has slightly set.

Add the mandarin oranges to the mixture and stir gently.

Transfer the salad to a serving dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Top with Cool Whip and sprinkle with nuts or coconut before serving.

Enjoy the creamy, citrusy goodness of this salad!
