2 small boxes orange gelatin
1 can mandarin oranges, drained thoroughly
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 1/2 scant cups crushed ice

Pour boiling water over gelatin and stir until completely dissolved. Add crushed ice and stir until ice is melted. Stir in sour cream.

Chill the gelatin until it begins to thicken, but is not set. This will suspend the orange sections throughout the gelatin. Stir in mandarin orange sections and pour into mold. Chill thoroughly.
