Ingredients

1/2 cup orange marmalade
1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon cold water

1 — 8 oz. carton frozen whipped topping, thawed
Yellow and red liquid food coloring
1 — 8 oz. package cream cheese, softened

Directions

~In a large saucepan, combine the orange marmalade and juice; cook and stir over medium heat until melted and blended.
