Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 8 ounces Cream cheese
• 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon Orange zest
• 0.5 cups Orange juice
• 2 drops Orange food coloring
• 2 ounces Dark chocolate
• 6 leaves Mint leaves

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 2

Press the crumb mixture firmly into a lined baking sheet, shaping it into six elongated ovals to resemble surfboards. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes to set.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.

Step 4

In another bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, orange zest, orange juice, and orange food coloring. Beat until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Gently fold the whipped cream into the orange cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

Step 6

Remove the graham cracker bases from the freezer. Spoon or pipe the orange mousse onto each base, shaping it to align with the surfboard shape. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second increments, stirring in between, until fully melted.

Step 8

Using a piping bag or spoon, drizzle the melted chocolate over the orange mousse to mimic the design of a surfboard.

Step 9

Refrigerate the assembled surfboards for at least one hour to firm up.

Step 10

Before serving, garnish each surfboard with a fresh mint leaf at one end. Serve chilled and enjoy!
