Mandarin Orange Jello Salad tastes like a Dreamsicle. Bright orange flavor with a creamy, mousse-like texture. Will you serve it as a side dish or a dessert?

Instructions
Combine orange jell-o, vanilla pudding mix and hot water in a large saucepan.
Bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
Continue boiling (and stirring) until mixture turns a clear orange color (about 5 minutes).
Pour into a
large bowl
and chill overnight. Alternatively, chill until set (about 4 hours).
Combine Cool Whip with jell-o/pudding mixture (a
potato masher
works well for this step).
Add mandarin oranges and stir gently.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
I don't recommend using instant pudding mix.
Plan ahead - needs to chill.
