Orange Creamsicle Pie. A very easy to make pie with a no churn ice-cream-like filling on a cookie crumb crust. A perfect, refreshing, summer barbecue dessert, or an ideal make ahead pie for Thanksgiving.
Ever need to make a dessert ahead of time? This pie is an ideal recipe for that purpose.
It is creamy smooth straight out of the freezer with plenty of orange citrus flavour punch. It reminds me of one of my favourite ice cream treats as a child.
A great idea would be to make two of these at a time. One to enjoy now and one to have on hand as a last minute dessert rescue for unexpected dinner guests.

Orange Creamsicle Pie
Orange Creamsicle Pie - a very easy to make pie with a no churn ice-cream-like filling on a cookie crumb crust. A perfect, refreshing, summer barbecue dessert.
Ingredients
For the crust
- 2 cups cookie crumbs, graham crumbs, vanilla wafer crumbs or digestive biscuit crumbs all will work well
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 2 tbsp sugar
For the pie filling
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 1 rounded tsp icing sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 5 extra large egg yolks
- 1/4 cup sugar
- One 10 ounce can of sweetened condensed milk (300ml)
- 1/2 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
- zest of 1 large or 2 small oranges, very finely minced
Instructions
To prepare the crust
- Mix together the crumbs, butter and sugar until well combined.
- Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9 or 10 inch pie plate. Bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees F. Set aside to cool.
To prepare the filling
- Whip 1/2 cup whipping cream, icing sugar and vanilla extract to soft peaks. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment in place, add the egg yolks and 1/4 cup sugar

It is yummy and yes it does get served frozen. That's the great thing about it, the velvety ice cream texture.

Beating the sugar and egg yolks together denatures the egg making it safe. This is better explained here: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Does_sugar_cook_an_egg
Of course the fact that this is a frozen pie and is served at a temperature where no bacteria could ever grow anyway makes it even more safe. There really is nothing to worry about here.

Thanks Barry. I was wondering the same thing about the egg yolks myself.

My wife started making this and realized there are uncooked eggs in the filling. I'm not worried about it but she's paranoid about salmonella. Comments?
