How to Make Creamsicle Orange Fluff
Step 1: Make the Jello Base
In a large mixing bowl, pour in the orange jello and carefully add the boiling water. Whisk until the powder dissolves fully and the mixture is smooth.
Step 2: Cool It Down
Add the cold water and stir gently. Place the bowl in the refrigerator and let it chill for about 20 minutes, or until it begins to set slightly.
Step 3: Add Pudding Mix
Once the jello is lightly thickened, whisk in the instant vanilla cheesecake pudding mix. Mix well to ensure it’s fully incorporated and smooth.
Step 4: Chill Again
Return the mixture to the fridge for another 20 minutes to thicken further. This step helps build the creamy texture of the final dessert.
Step 5: Fold in the Good Stuff
Take the chilled base out and gently fold in the Cool Whip, mandarin oranges, and pastel mini marshmallows. Mix with care to avoid breaking the oranges.
Step 6: Let It Set
Transfer the fluff back to the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours so everything firms up and the flavors marry beautifully.
Step 7: Garnish & Present
Before serving, top with a few extra mandarin segments, a handful of marshmallows (if desired), and a sprig or two of mint for a touch of freshness and color.
