Cold Orange Souffle

Ingredients:

1 cup cold water
2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
8 eggs, separated
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (6 ounce) cans frozen orange juice, thawed
1 cup sugar
1 cup whipping cream, whipped
Orange sections (Optional)

Directions:

Place water in the top of a double boiler and sprinkle the gelatin over the surface to soften. Beat egg yolks lightly and add them with the salt to the gelatin. Mix well. Place over boiling water and cook, stirring constantly, until gelatin dissolves and the mixture thickens some, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in orange concentrate. Chill until mixture drops from a spoon into soft mounds. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually beat in the sugar and continue beating until the egg whites are stiff. Fold the whites into the orange mixture. Fold in the whipped cream. Arrange a collar of double waxed paper around a 2-1/2 quart souffle dish, 2 inches above the top of the dish. Fasten with tape. Pour mixture into dish can chill until firm. Remove collar and decorate with orange sections. A great summer dessert.

Servings: 8 – 10
