Ingredients
  • GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST – FROM SCRATCH!:
  • 18 – 20 “sheets” graham crackers (2 sleeves) – crushed fine
  • ¾ Cup Sugar
  • ½ Cup Butter (1 stick) melted and still warm
  • FROZEN ORANGE DREAMSICLE DESSERT:
  • 1 Pre-made Graham Cracker Crust (see above)
  • 1 32 oz. container of orange sherbet – softened
  • 1 half gallon vanilla ice cream – softened
  • crushed graham crackers for garnish (optional)
Instructions
  1. GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST – FROM SCRATCH!
  2. Mix together the graham cracker crumbs and sugar until combined.
  3. Mix in the warm melted butter until you get a texture that resembles a crumble.
  4. Press the crumb mixture into a 9×13 baking pan or (2) 8″ pie tins. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to really press the crumbs into the bottom and up the side slightly of the pan. Chill for 30 minutes.
  5. *If you are making a baked dessert with a graham cracker crust, bake the crust for 5 – 7 minutes in a 350 degree oven before adding your recipe ingredients.
  6. FROZEN ORANGE DREAMSICLE DESSERT:
  7. In a bowl, fold together the sherbet and vanilla ice cream GENTLY. You don’t want to mix them completely. We’re looking for a marbled look of orange and white here.
  8. When the 2 are mixed, pour into your prepared Graham Cracker Crust you made earlier.
  9. Smooth out the ice cream evenly with a spatula and chill for at least 30 minutes or until set.
  10. Sprinkle the top with graham cracker crumbs to garnish.
  11. Serve frozen!
