We live about 100 miles from Cape Cod, which is known for its cranberries. When we spent a weekend there, we toured the Cranberry World Visitors Center, which is where I found this recipe.

CRANBERRY/RASPBERRY MOUSSE



Cranberry/Raspberry Mousse image

I tore this recipe from an ad in a magazine many years ago. This is a nice dessert for a family meal. Or you can fancy it up by putting the mousse in a pie shell. In any case, you're sure to like the flavor of this delicious dessert.

Provided by Lorraine of AZ

Categories     Gelatin

Time 10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (10 ounce) package frozen raspberries, thawed
cranberry juice or cranberry and raspberry juice, enough to make 1 cup
1 (3 ounce) package raspberry gelatin
1 (16 ounce) can jelled cranberry sauce or 1 (16 ounce) can jelled cranberry and raspberry sauce
2 cups Cool Whip, thawed
additional Cool Whip, thawed (optional)

Steps:

  • Drain thawed raspberries, reserving both the berries and the juice.
  • Add to the drained juice enough additional cranberry juice or cranberry/raspberry juice to make one cup. Heat juice to boiling. Dissolve jello in boiling juice. Beat canned, jelled sauce and add to jello. Refrigerate until nearly set. Beat in the 2 cups Cool Whip; fold in the reserved raspberries.
  • Spoon into individual serving dishes and return to the refrigerator until set. Garnish each serving with a dollop of additional Cool Whip, if desired.
  • Variation: Cranberry/Raspberry Mousse Pie: Instead of dessert dishes spoon the mousse into a prepared vanilla cookie crumb pie crust. Return to the refrigerator until set. Garnish each slice with a dollop of cool Whip, if desired.

Tips:

  • For a smoother mousse filling, make sure the gelatin is completely dissolved before adding it to the whipped cream. You can also strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate. Just be sure to trim the excess pastry before baking.
  • To make the pie ahead of time, bake the crust and let it cool completely. Then, wrap the mousse filling in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days. When ready to serve, thaw the mousse filling in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. Then, spread the mousse filling over the cooled crust and top with fresh cranberries.
  • For a more festive presentation, you can decorate the pie with whipped cream, fresh cranberries, or even a sprinkling of powdered sugar.

Conclusion:

This Cranberry Mousse Pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The creamy mousse filling is light and fluffy, while the tangy cranberries add a pop of flavor. The graham cracker crust is the perfect finishing touch, providing a crunchy and sweet base for the pie. Whether you're serving it for a special occasion or just as a weeknight treat, this Cranberry Mousse Pie is sure to be a hit.
