This recipe is special to me because it allows me to treat my dinner guests to a special, unusual dessert. The bright, vivid colors are perfect for the holidays. Omit the Prosecco when serving to children. —Jerry Gulley, Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin

Test Kitchen tip
  • With a bright rosy color, blood oranges can make a stunning dessert but they are available for only a short amount of time. Grab them when you can, but feel free to substitute navel oranges, tangerines or pink grapefruit when the season is over.
