Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Puree Strawberries: In a blender or food processor, puree the strawberries until smooth, creating a fresh strawberry base for the mousse.
- Whip Cream: In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream together with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, ensuring a light and fluffy texture.
- Fold Together: Gently fold the strawberry puree and vanilla extract into the whipped cream, taking care not to deflate the mixture, until fully combined.
- Chill: Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the mousse to set and flavors to meld before serving.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for best flavor.
- Chilling is essential to achieve the right mousse texture.
- For a less sweet version, reduce the powdered sugar.
- Can be garnished with additional strawberries or mint leaves before serving.
