Orange Cream Squares
I love putting together quick, cool, and tasty desserts that look like you’ve been in the kitchen for hours. This is one of my favorites because it combines orange and vanilla, almost like a creamsicle.
Just a warning, this does need to be in a freezer for at least 3 hours so make sure you plan ahead for your next party or barbecue. But having this dessert done ahead of time will just make things easier for you!

- 1½ cups crushed Nilla Wafers or graham crackers (about 40 Nilla wafers)

I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
