Prep Time: 10 minutes
Chilling Time: 3 hours
Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 3 naval oranges
  • 1 packet of gelatin powder
  • 500 ml 2 cups cottage cheese
  • 1/2 brick 4 oz or 120g cream cheese
  • 5 dates
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Cut off the tops of the oranges and scoop out the flesh. Place the flesh and packet of gelatin in a blender and blend until smooth-ish.
  • Pour into a microwave safe dish and microwave on high until bubbling (or heat on stove).
  • Return to blender with the remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth then pour into a lidded container and place in fridge.
  • Meanwhile, carve faces into your oranges using a sharp paring knife.
  • Once the fluff has set a bit... like a marshmallow salad (this will take a few hours), scoop and fill the oranges. You will have extra fluff.

Notes

For non-babies who might prefer a sweeter snack, feel free to stir in some nutella for a delicious chocolate-orange mousse!
