Ingredients:
1 1/2 envelopes unflavoured gelatin
1/2 C sugar
1 C hot water
3 egg yolks - beaten
6 oz. fresh orange juice or 1 can (6 oz) frozen concentrate
3 Tbls. lemon juice or orange liqueur
3 egg whites
1/4 C sugar
1 9-inch crumb crust
1/2 C whipped cream or nondairy whipped topping
Fresh orange sections
Directions:
Mix gelatin and 1/2 C sugar in top of double boiler. Add hot water. Cook and stir over boiling water until gelatin is dissolved. Add a little of the hot mixture to egg yolks. Return egg yolks to gelatin and reduce heat to cook and stir egg mixture over hot, not boiling, water until it coats a silver spoon, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and add orange juice and lemon juice or liqueur. Chill until mixture begins to thicken. Beat egg whites with 1/4 C sugar until soft peaks form. Fold into thickened gelatin. Spoon into crumb shell. Chill until firm. Garnish with whipped cream and orange sections.
This dessert is a bit fussy to make but well worth the effort. Enjoy!
