Orange Cheesecake Mousse
"This dessert is elegant enough to serve at a dinner party and everyone will think it took you hours to prepare. A light dessert that won't make you feel heavy. It states that you should have a pastry bag with fitted tips to make a pretty presentation, but you can just spoon it into a parfait glass or even wine glasses. Garnishing is up to you. Chocolate curls, a strawberry fan, a few blueberries on top. Go wild and enjoy. Cook time does not include chill time."

ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup orange marmalade
- 1⁄4 cup orange juice
- 1⁄2 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon cold water
- 1⁄2 teaspoon orange extract
- 8 ounces Cool Whip, thawed or 8 ounces other frozen whipped topping

- 1 cup sour cream
- 1⁄2 cup cold milk
- 1 (3 1/2 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix
directions
- In a lrg. saucepan, combine orange juice and marmalade; cook and stir over medium heat until melted and blended.
- In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water until smooth. Gradually stir into marmalade mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 4 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Cool completely. Fold into thawed Cool whip. Tint with yellow and red food coloring if desired working with 1 drop of each at a time so as not to make too dark.
- Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sour cream and mix well.
- In a small bowl, beat the milk and vanilla pudding mix on low speed for 2 minutes. Stir into cream cheese mixture.
- ***The next step is if you're using a pastry bag. If not using, then spoon into glasses and spoon Cool whip/orange mixture on top. Chill. Garnish before serving.***.
- Cut a large hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag ( or a zip lock type of bag); fill half full with with the cream cheese mixture. Press bag slightly and carefully to flatten. Pipe into glasses. Repeat with remaining mixture. Cut a small hole in another pastry bag; insert star tip No. 21 (or just the star tip number whatever). Fill this bag with the Cool whip/orange mixture and pipe in a swirl design on top of cream cheese mixture. Chill. Garnish before serving.

<p>I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and was born in Esterhazy Saskatchewan. I am in the Food & Beverage industry and have been for over 22 years. I love to cook, but I would not call myself a "Chef". While I'm not good at creating recipes, I can take a recipe and tweak it or improve on it. I would have to say that I'm a self taught cook as my Mother never had time to really teach me. I would just watch her and figured it out on my own. I have collected 1000's of recipes (lots from here on Zaar) from cookbooks, clippings, pamphlets, you name it. <br />I like to read (favorite author is Jackie Collins), watch movies, trying to figure out how computers work and like to surf the net. Although I can stay in the background for months and not say anything, I'm always here on Zaar. It's a great site to be involved with. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/8352/saladtl5.gif" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/7688/salad8dw5ck0.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/3374/rolls2is3ue8.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/2480/fork2tp6cl6.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img253.imageshack.us/img253/1376/lobster6cz0.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/8659/crabburger1yu0.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/308/crab1lh8.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/604/app398896002838932ml0k.gif" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img160.imageshack.us/img160/8537/172478p.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/8280/149980p.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/1571/dessert18li2bz8da5ds4.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/26/chocolates2qi2.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/2734/foodsoy7.gif" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/9931/sweets1il3.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/8642/drinks1.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img398.imageshack.us/img398/7087/drinks2ji0zk3.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img76.imageshack.us/img76/9346/1858887vvr6dlsowm.jpg" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/3972/8ebmqtttm2.gif" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><a href="http://easyhitcounters.com/stats.php?site=carmen782" target="_top"><img src="http://beta.easyhitcounters.com/counter/index.php?u=carmen782&s=apple" border="0" alt="Free Web Site Counter" hspace="4" vspace="2" align="middle" /></a></p>
