GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST

2 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons Land O Lakes Light Butter (5.5 grams fat per 1 tablespoon) or other light butter or
margarine, melted
Prepare Graham Cracker Crust according to directions using an 8 to 9-inch pie plate. Cover and chill
crust at least an hour before filling. Drain Mandarin Orange syrup off orange segments and set aside ½
cup orange syrup. Cover orange segments and chill until ready to serve with chilled pie. Pour skim
milk into a small saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin over milk and allow to soften 3 to 4 minutes. Stirring
frequently, cook milk over low heat, 2 to 3 minutes until gelatin has dissolved. Blend fat free cream
cheese and sugar together until smooth. Gently mix milk, ½ cup Mandarin Orange syrup, vanilla, and
orange extract and lemon juice into cheese mixture until well combined. Pour mixture into prepared
crust. Refrigerate until set and chilled; approximately 2 hours before serving. Before serving carefully
spread 1½ cup fat free whipped topping over top of pie in an even layer and garnish servings with
chilled orange segments. Yield: 10 servings at approximately 230 calories; 1.9 grams total fat; 0.8
