How to Make Ambrosia Cream Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in the whipped cream until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Drain the mandarin orange segments and gently fold them into the cream cheese mixture.
- Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
- Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set completely.
- Before serving, garnish with toasted coconut flakes (optional) and a few extra mandarin orange segments.
