Orange Ice Box Dessert


Orange Ice Box Dessert - Maurine G.
This dessert is very easy and very tasty.  I used fresh squeezed oranges instead of frozen orange juice.  I invited our latest 2 widowed friends and families over for Sunday Dinner.  They don't eat many sugary things.  They helped rate the dessert and gave it a 4.  I think it might have a little sweeter flavor and the color would be a little brighter if you used frozen juice.  If it sits long the cookie crumb goes to mush on the bottom.  If you created baked cookie crust it might help, or just serve it all at once.  I guessed what size of pan to use.  The recipe fits in a 8" x 8" pan.  I would definately make this one again.
