From DeRidder, Louisiana, Frann Clark shares this exceptionally light citrus dessert that practically melts in your mouth. "This is so easy that kids can help prepare it," she says.
Ingredients

- 1 can (5 ounces) evaporated milk, chilled
- 1 reduced-fat graham cracker crust (9 inches)
- 1 medium navel orange, sliced
Reviews
The mandarin oranges really make this recipe good. It's not a very sweet dessert- I think maybe next time I'd add a bit of sugar. Although the crust was good, I think that a Nilla wafer crust would actually blend better with the flavors than a graham crust.
keith, check Fluffy key lime pie (same site), they use cool whip in that, sure you can subsitute for the evap. Good luck
Does anyone think that 'cool whip' type product could be used instead of evaporated milk?My family does not care for the taste of it.
I used a regular crust, rather than graham cracker, and it was fine. I also reduced the amount of evaporated milk because I think it often tastes strange in fruity pies.
