Strawberry Mousse Recipe

Light, airy, and irresistibly creamy, this easy strawberry mousse is the perfect dessert for any occasion. With fresh strawberries and a few simple ingredients, you can create a luscious treat that melts in your mouth.

  • Total Time: 2 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (300g) fresh strawberries, hulled
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Place the strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, then strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.
  3. Gently fold the strawberry puree into the whipped cream using a spatula. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  4. Spoon the mousse into serving glasses or bowls. Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon.
  5. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set.
  6. Optional: Garnish with fresh strawberries, mint leaves, or a dollop of whipped cream before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure the heavy whipping cream is cold for easier whipping.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less sugar based on your preference.
  • Best served chilled for optimal texture and flavor.
