Ingredients
  

  • 1 box orange gelatin mix 3 oz
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1 box instant vanilla pudding mix 3.4 oz
  • 2 tsp fresh orange zest from about 1 medium orange
  • 1 tub frozen whipped topping 8 oz, thawed
  • whipped cream optional, for serving
  • orange slices optional, for serving

Instructions
 

  • Place the orange gelatin mix in a large bowl and add the boiling water.
  • Whisk until every gelatin crystal has completely dissolved.
  • Stir in the cold water.
  • Refrigerate for about 12 minutes, until cooled and just beginning to thicken but not set.
  • Remove the bowl from the refrigerator and whisk in the dry vanilla pudding mix until smooth.
  • Refrigerate for another 15 minutes.
  • Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping and fresh orange zest until evenly combined and fluffy.
