Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups Fresh Strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup Heavy Cream
- 1/4 cup Powdered Sugar
Instructions
- Prepare your strawberries: Wash under cool water, pat dry, remove the green tops, and slice in half. Optionally, toss with a tablespoon of powdered sugar and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Blend the strawberries: Transfer strawberry halves to a blender and blend until smooth, leaving some chunks for texture.
- Whip the cream: In a bowl, beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
- Incorporate the sugar: Gradually add in powdered sugar and beat for another minute until firm and glossy.
- Fold in the strawberries: Gently fold the blended strawberries into the whipped cream with a rubber spatula.
- Chill and set: Spoon the mousse into cups, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Serve and savor: Garnish the chilled mousse with extra strawberry slices or mint before serving.
Notes
Use ripe strawberries for the best flavor. The mousse can be made a day in advance and stored in the fridge.
