Oranges with Cream Filling (Elsie)

6 oranges
1 250 gm pkg. cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
3 tbsps peach schnapps or triple sec
1 cup whipping cream, whipped

Cut top quarter off oranges and a thin slice off bottom of orange just enough to enable it to stand upright.
Remove pulp from orange. Set fruit aside.
Beat cream cheese and sugar until well blended. Beat in liqueur. Fold in whipped cream.

To assemble; place a few small cut up pieces of orange in each orange shell. Fill level full with cheese mixture. Garnish with a bit of orange, mint leaf or thin chocolate stick.
Refrigerate for several hours before serving. This works best with thick skinned oranges.
