I buy a large crate of oranges every winter. This is one recipe that my mom and I make to use them in. Has such a fresh, sweet citrus flavor that is very delicious. Adapted from Southern Living. Ingredients:
3 egg yolks |

1 cup orange juice, divided |
1 envelope unflavored gelatin |
2 tablespoons fresh grated orange rind |
1 teaspoon fresh grated fresh lemon rind |
2 cups whipping cream, divided |
2/3 cup powdered sugar |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup flaked coconut |
1 cup diced orange section, drained |
1 9-inch baked pie crust |
3 tablespoons powdered sugar |

1. Beat egg yolks in a bowl.
2. Add yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup orange juice to a saucepan; stir to combine.
3. Cook and stir constantly over low heat for 10-12 minutes or until mixture reaches 160°; take off of heat.
4. Sprinkle gelatin over the remaining orange juice; stir to combine, then let stand for 1 minute.
5. Add gelatin mixture and grated orange and lemon rind to egg yolk mixture; stir to combine.
6. Chill until the mixture has the consistency of unbeaten egg whites.
