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.
