Lemon Mousse With Raspberry Sauce image

This is a rich and intense lemon mousse, so small portions, lavished with an uncooked raspberry puree, will satisfy every lemon lover in the crowd. You can present this mousse in a large bowl instead of individual glasses, although it will take an additional three hours to set. Developed by Michael Mclaughlin, this recipe is from a June 1988 issue of Bon Appetit.Fresh berries are better than frozen, I think. Cooling and refrigerating time not included in prep time.

This mousse was a bit too tart for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less lemon juice next time.

This mousse was a bit too dense for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend whipping the cream a little longer next time.

This mousse was a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's because I used fresh raspberries. I think it would be better with frozen raspberries, which are less tart.

I'm not a big fan of lemon desserts, but this mousse was surprisingly good. The lemon flavor was subtle and not overpowering. The raspberry sauce was also very good and added a nice tartness to the mousse.
