Ingredients

  • 1 chocolate wafer pie crust (9 inch)
  • 1 (3 1/2 ounce) package orange gelatin
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 2 teaspoons grated orange rind
  • 1 can evaporated milk, chilled ((160 mL tin))
  • 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier

Directions

  1. 1
    Either purchase a prepared chocolate wafer pie crust, or make one: Crush one package chocolate wafer cookies into fine crumbs, mix with 1/3 cup melted margarine, and press all but three tablespoons of the crumb mixture into a ten-inch pie plate.
  2. 2
    To make the filling: Combine the orange jello, boiling water, sugar, orange juice and orange rind (freshly grated, not dried), stirring until the sugar crystals are dissolved.
  3. 3
    Chill in a bowl until this reaches a soft jelly-like consistency.
  4. 4
    Whip the chilled evaporated milk (a small tin, 160 mL in size, not the big one) until it becomes light and frothy.
  5. 5
    Fold this into the jello mixture along with the liqueur.
  6. 6
    Pour into the pie shell, and sprinkle with reserved crumbs, if available.
  7. 7
    Chill for one to two hours before serving.
  8. 8
    This lets the pie set and you'll be able to cut it into slices.
