Are you ready for another simple and satisfying dessert? How about an easy mandarin orange dessert?

A couple of weeks ago, I shared the pineapple version of this delightful sweet bite.

It's basically just three ingredients whipped up by hand into a glorious easy mandarin dessert that will knock your socks off.

Okay, maybe not literally but it sure will instantly cure any sweet tooth.

That is a real "condition", isn't it?

But seriously, I'm amazed at how just three ingredients come together to make this epic treat!

If you remember the pineapple version on Cutefetti, it's just canned fruit in syrup combined with dry pudding mix and whipped topping.

But the result is anything but "just".

Enjoying it chilled from your fridge is like walking into a spring wonderland and topping with another dab of whipped cream takes it right over the top. Literally!

I've yet to meet one person who did not find this flavor combination dreamy and the recipe easy to make.
