I have posted one for "Orange Grove Pie." I often use just the
filling for a mousse/souffle-like dessert:

Orange Grove Pie

5 egg yolks
1/2 C. sugar
2 T. lemon juice
3 T. grated orange rind
1/8 tsp. salt
2 C. whipping cream, whipped
5 oranges

Beat yolks slightly and add 1/2 C. sugar, lemon juice, grated orange
rind and
salt. Cook over boiling water, stirring constantly until thick, about
10
minutes. Fold in 2 oranges which have been cut into pieces and
thorougly
drained. Cool and fold in half the whipped cream. Chill 12 hours or
longer.
Serve with whipped cream and orange pieces.

(This is a pie recipe - if making a pie, put a layer of whipped cream
in the
bottom of a meringue pie shell; pour the orange filling on top and
then top
with the rest of the whipped cream and garnish with orange sections.)
