Ingredients
Scale
Strawberry Mousse
- 12½ ounces strawberries (3/4 pound), cleaned and sliced
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup cold heavy cream (with at least 30% fat content)
- Extra strawberries for topping
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberry Puree: Clean and slice the strawberries. Place the sliced strawberries and granulated sugar into a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Remove ½ cup of this puree and set it aside for layering.
- Whip the Cream: In a cold bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat.
- Combine Puree and Cream: Gently fold the remaining strawberry puree (excluding the ½ cup set aside) into the whipped cream, taking care to maintain the airy texture of the mousse.
- Assemble the Mousse: Divide the reserved ½ cup of strawberry puree evenly between 4 small to medium glasses (each glass approximately 1 cup in volume). Spoon the strawberry mousse over the puree in each glass.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the assembled mousse for at least 1 hour or overnight to allow it to set and flavors to meld. Before serving, top with fresh sliced strawberries. Enjoy your fresh strawberry mousse!
Notes
- Use cold cream and a chilled bowl to achieve the best whipped cream consistency.
- For a smoother mousse, strain the strawberry puree before folding into the cream.
- The mousse can be prepared a day in advance and refrigerated overnight for convenience.
- Glasses hold approximately 1 cup capacity each – adjust servings accordingly.
- Fresh strawberries on top add a lovely texture and presentation boost.
