Ingredients
2 cups fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
3 tablespoons cold water
1 cup heavy whipping cream
Directions
Prepare the Raspberry Puree
In a blender or food processor, combine the raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds. Set aside.
Bloom the Gelatin
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Combine Gelatin with Raspberry Puree
Heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave or over a double boiler until fully dissolved. Stir the gelatin into the raspberry puree until well mixed. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
Whip the Cream
Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the heavy whipping cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Fold the Mousse
Gently fold the raspberry mixture into the whipped cream until fully combined and smooth.
Chill and Set
Spoon the mousse into serving glasses or ramekins. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Serve and Garnish
Before serving, garnish with fresh raspberries and a sprig of mint for an extra touch of elegance.
Serving and Storage Tips
Serving: Serve the mousse chilled, directly from the refrigerator. It pairs beautifully with shortbread cookies or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
Storage: Store leftovers in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days. Avoid freezing, as the texture may become grainy.
