Creamcycle Pie!!!!!

ORANGE-VANILLA ICE CREAM PIE WITH ORANGE WHIPPED CREAM

Start to finish: 20 minutes active (plus several hours freezing)

Servings: 6

1 pint vanilla ice cream

1 1/2 cups orange sherbet

1 cup orange soda

1 prepared graham cracker pie shell

1 1/2 cups heavy cream

1 teaspoon orange extract

1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Zest of 1 orange

In a blender, combine the ice cream, sherbet and orange soda. Blend until smooth, stopping the blender and stirring the mixture as needed to ensure it blends evenly. Pour the mixture into the pie shell, then carefully transfer to the freezer. Freeze for several hours, or until firm.

When ready to serve, in a large bowl combine the cream, extract and powdered sugar. Use an electric mixer to whip on high until the cream holds firm peaks. Fold in the orange zest, then mound the whipped cream over the ice cream pie. Let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes, or until thawed just enough to easily slice.
