Orange Julius Fruit Dip

Without giving away my age, remember when it was cool to go to the mall with your friends?  And get the latest cassette tape?  And lots of Mrs. Grossman's stickers for your sticker album?  Yeah, I don't either because I'm not that old ;)  But the quintessential mall treat back then was an Orange Julius drink.  Cold, frothy and citrus-y.  Not quite a milkshake and not quite a smoothie.  But totally awesome-ly satisfying for 80s kids every where.  I don't know about your area, but we no longer have Orange Julius at our local mall, but you can still enjoy the flavors in this refreshing fruit dip.  It's a slightly healthy dessert with just a few ingredients that will take you back to the good ol' days when you listened to Tears for Fears and had those little teddy bear stickers stuck to all of your notebooks. 
Tastes just like 80s hair bands, jelly shoes and
ORANGE JULIUS at the mall!


Orange Julius Dip

1 (6 ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1 1/4 cup whole milk
1 small package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 (8 ounce) Cool Whip topping, thawed

In a mixing bowl, dissolve the orange juice concentrate in milk.  Add the pudding mix and mix well.  Fold in the Cool Whip and chill several hours or overnight.  Tastes just like an Orange Julius.  Serve with fresh fruit for dipping.
