Provided by Rachel Koller

Categories     Desserts

Time 1h12m

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup powdered sugar
1 3oz box of strawberry jello mix, just the powder
1/2 cup hot/boiling water, plus 2-4 ice cubes if desired to cool quicker

Steps:

  • Dissolve jello mix in hot/boiling water. Set aside to cool. Don't let it get chunky though.
  • Whip heavy cream and powdered sugar together until medium peaks form.
  • Once Jello mixture has cooled but is still runny (not chunky) slowly pour it into the cream mixture with mixer on low speed. (If jello mixture is to warm add 2-4 ice cubes to it to help cool but make sure it doesn't cool too much and become jelly. This will cause your mousse to have clumps in it.) NOTE: If jello mixture is too warm it will deflate the cream and become very runny).
  • Finish whipping strawberry mousse mixture until stiff peaks are formed then refrigerate until ready to serve.

CHILLED STRAWBERRY MOUSSE

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 4h35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound/450 g fresh ripe strawberries, hulled
3/4 cup/165 g sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Pinch salt
3 large eggs, separated
1 3/4 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
Pinch cream of tartar
1/2 cup/125 ml heavy cream

Steps:

  • Cut a piece of foil or parchment longer than the circumference of a 6-cup/1.5-liter mold. Double it for stiffness. Wrap around the outside rim so that it rises at least an inch above the top of the dish, and tape to secure.
  • Puree the berries with 1/4 cup/55 g sugar, the lemon juice and salt. Strain and reserve.
  • Put the yolks in a nonreactive bowl with 1/4 cup/55 g sugar and 1/2 cup/125 g of the berry puree. (Reserve the remaining puree for another use.) Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water, making sure the bowl does not touch the water below, and whisk until the sugar dissolves and it is warm in the center. Remove the bowl from the saucepan and set aside.
  • Put 1/4 cup/60 ml water into a ramekin, sprinkle the gelatin on top and let soften 5 minutes. Set the ramekin in the hot water in the saucepan (make sure the water does not come up over the edge of the ramekin) and let it melt, about 2 minutes. It should be translucent. Whisk this into the berry mixture, and let cool until it thickens slightly. Don't let it set too far.
  • Beat the whites with the cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually incorporate the remaining 1/4 cup/55 g sugar, and beat to thick, shiny peaks like whipped cream. Whip the cream in a separate bowl. Stir a spoonful of the whites into the berry mixture to lighten it. Scrape the remaining whites and cream on top and fold together.
  • Spoon into the prepared mold, cover and refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours.
  • To serve, remove the collar and spoon into dishes. This is best eaten on the day it is made or the next day. After that, the gelatin starts to break down.

Tips - **Use ripe strawberries:** The riper the strawberries are, the more flavor your mousse will have. Look for berries that are plump, red, and have a sweet smell. - **Chill your ingredients:** Chilling your cream and strawberries before making the mousse will help it set up more quickly and smoothly. - **Use a food processor or blender:** A food processor or blender will make quick work of pureeing the strawberries. If you don't have either of these appliances, you can mash the strawberries with a fork or potato masher. - **Whip the cream until stiff peaks form:** Stiff peaks mean that the cream will hold its shape when you lift the beater out of the bowl. If you overwhip the cream, it will become grainy. - **Fold the whipped cream into the strawberry puree gently:** Folding the whipped cream into the strawberry puree will help to keep the mousse light and airy. If you stir too vigorously, you will deflate the whipped cream. - **Chill the mousse before serving:** Chilling the mousse for at least 2 hours before serving will help it to set up and firm up. Conclusion Strawberry mousse is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is light, airy, and packed with strawberry flavor. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dessert that will impress your friends and family. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give this strawberry mousse recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
