- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp unflavored gelatin
- 2 tbsp cold water
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Fresh raspberries and mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook for 5–7 minutes until raspberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly.
- Remove from heat and press through a fine sieve to remove seeds. Set raspberry puree aside.
- In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
- Warm the gelatin gently until fully dissolved, then stir it into the raspberry puree. Let it cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the raspberry mixture into the whipped cream until fully combined and smooth.
- Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and chill for at least 2 hours or until set.
- Garnish with fresh raspberries and mint leaves before serving, if desired.
Notes
- You can use frozen raspberries if fresh ones are not available.
- Adjust sugar to taste depending on the sweetness of your raspberries.
- Chill your mixing bowl and beaters before whipping cream for better results.
