On Saturday, the day before Easter, we went to a cookout at my daughter-in-law’s grandmother’s house. Most of her family was there and so was most of ours. We don’t know her family well, except for her grandmother and grandfather who have cruised with us, so it is always a bit awkward and uncomfortable.

The flavor of this Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake takes me right back to my childhood. The cookie crust pairs well with the smooth orange flavor.

I was asked to bring a non-chocolate dessert since some of her family is allergic to chocolate. I thought for weeks about what I would bring, I mean, what’s Easter without chocolate? Then I remembered the Orange Creamsicle Bars I made a few months ago and decided that would make a great cheesecake flavor profile!

This Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake recipe takes some time to come together because it takes 4 hours for the Jell-o to set plus the cheesecake needs at least 6 hours in the fridge to set up. I highly recommend you make this dessert the day before you plan to serve it.
