Say hello to spring with this simple yet out of this world dessert recipe.

So here I am again with a Fresh Strawberry dessert, and I have to admit this one is amazing. I was and always will be a lover of Mousse. Although I really just started making it more and more in the last year or so.

And I really don’t know what took me so long! I guess I have the Italian to thank, it was his idea to try making it after eating it in a restaurant. I liked the idea so I gave it a shot.

Back in March I made a Double Chocolate Mousse Cake for my youngest daughter’s birthday. And trust me it was good!

So now when I have friends over for dinner and I know I need to make a dessert. But let’s face it sometimes you really need something quick and easy and no bake.

And this Strawberry Mousse is just that! And only 3 ingredients!

How to make Strawberry Mousse

• In a blender or food processor puree the strawberries with the sugar.
• Remove about half a cup of puree and set aside.
• Whip the cream until very thick.
• Fold the remaining puree into the whipped cream until combined.
• Place a couple of tablespoons of strawberry puree on the bottom of each glass (4 medium glasses).
• Top with the Strawberry Mousse and then refrigerate for approximately one hour or even longer if desired.
• Serve with fresh sliced strawberries. So good!

Fresh Strawberry Mousse

Since this is Strawberry season in Italy, it is the fruit of the moment in our house. My daughter’s favourite, so we never have a shortage!

Although we did have a shortage of these Strawberry Mousse cups after the Italian got his hands on them. Definitely one of his no sharing desserts! Enjoy!

US CustomaryMetric

 

1x2x3x

• 12 1/2 ounces strawberries (3/4 pound)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup whole or whipping cream (cold)
• extra strawberries for topping

Instructions

 

• Clean and slice the strawberries, In a blender or food processor add the sliced strawberries and the sugar and puree.  Remove 1/2 a cup of puree and set aside.
• In a cold bowl add the cream and beat until stiff peaks form.  Then fold in the remaining puree (not the 1/2 cup) gently.
• Divide the 1/2 cup of puree between the 4 small/medium** glasses and top with the strawberry mousse.  Refrigerate for approximately 1 hour or even over night if desired.  Top with fresh sliced strawberries and serve.  Enjoy.
• ** for size purposes, the glasses I used hold 1 cup of water.

Notes

For anyone wanting to use this as a filling (eg pie or cake), this might help, whip the cream until soft peaks form, then in a small pot add 1 tablespoon of water and sprinkle the teaspoon of gelatine on top, let stand one minute, then place the pot on low heat and heat just until the gelatine has dissolved whisk until smooth, do not boil, then immediately remove from heat. Pour the gelatine (slightly cooled but not thickened if it does thicken too much then warm it up again) into the cream and continue to whip until firm peaks form, then continue with the recipe.
