ORANGE CREAMSICLE PIE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Heavily grease a 7-inch tart pan with butter and set aside.
• Add the boiling water to the jello powder and stir to dissolve. Set aside to cool.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the graham cracker crumbs and sugar, and mix thoroughly. Once mixed, check to see the crumb will set by squeezing a little in your hand. It should hold together, but not be soggy. If it's too dry, it will need a little more butter; if too greasy, just add a touch more crumb.
• Using your hands, press the mixture into the greased tart pan, evenly across the bottom and up the sides. Using a flat-bottomed glass or cup, push the crumb down to create a firm crust. Place in the refrigerator to chill.
• Whip 1 1/4 cups of the cream with a hand or electric whisk until firm, but not stiff. Gently pour the jello, marmalade, and 1 tablespoon of the zest into the cream and stir carefully with a metal spoon until thoroughly mixed. Try not to flatten the cream.
• Carefully pour the mixture into the pie crust. Tap the pan on a work surface to release any air bubbles then place it in the freezer for about 1 hour. Once frozen, wrap in plastic wrap if you are not eating immediately.
• Remove the pie from the freezer at least 30 minutes before eating (or it will be too hard).
• Before serving, whip the remaining 1/4 cup cream and spoon or pipe in generous swirls onto each slice of pie; add a small slice of orange or a sprinkle of orange zest.
• Enjoy.
