Like everyone else, I like desserts but don't need the calories, says Julie Meyer of Madison, Wisconsin. I make this pie for my roommates, and they never complain...they just gobble it up! Ingredients:
1 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce |
3/4 teaspoon grated orange peel |
5 cups reduced-fat vanilla ice cream, softened |
4 to 5 drops red food coloring, optional |
1/2 cup crushed chocolate wafers (about 9 wafers) |
16 fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed |
8 orange peel strips |
2 tablespoons sugar |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, whisk cranberry sauce and orange peel until blended. Fold in ice cream and food coloring if desired. Cover and freeze for 15 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, sprinkle crushed wafers in a 9-in. pie plate coated with cooking spray. Freeze for 10 minutes. Spoon ice cream mixture into pie plate. Cover and freeze 4 hours or until firm. Toss cranberries and orange peel in sugar. Remove pie from freezer 10-15 minutes before cutting. Garnish with sugared cranberries and orange peel. Yield: 8 servings. |
