Orange Creamsicle Lush

In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and sugar.
Pour in the melted butter and mix until all crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish to form an even layer.
Prepare the Creamsicle Layer:

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, orange extract, and orange zest, mixing until well combined.
Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until everything is mixed and creamy.
Assemble the Dessert:

Spread the creamsicle mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Chill:

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set. For best results, let it chill overnight.
Serve:

Once chilled, cut into squares and serve. You can garnish with additional orange zest or whipped topping if desired.
Enjoy!

This creamy and refreshing dessert is sure to be a hit at any gathering!
