Raspberry Mousse Recipe

Raspberry mousse might sound tricky to make, but really it's actually quite simple!

Just don't tell your guests, because they will be so impressed with this decadent dessert. 😉

In an effort to fully disclose, this recipe contains affiliate links for products I used to make this raspberry mousse. If you purchase something, I would receive a commission. For more information, see my disclosure page. 

It also makes a wonderful Valentine's Day Dessert if you pour the mousse into heart silicone molds.

Now, lets start making this heavenly raspberry dessert!

Raspberry Mousse

Ingredients:

6oz package fresh raspberries

⅓ cup granulated sugar

2 tablespoon water

¾ cup heavy whipping cream

1 ⅛ teaspoon unflavored gelatin

2 tablespoon water (for gelatin)

Directions:

The first thing you will do is combine 2 tablespoon of water and the unflavored gelatin in a small bowl. Spoon it together and then set it aside.

Adding water to unflavored gelatin

Then, in a small sauce pan or frying pan add in the raspberries, sugar, and water. Turn the heat to low, and stir often.

You can speed this up by smashing the raspberries down with a rubber spatula. When you have a liquid consistency, remove the raspberries from the heat.

Raspberries cooked down into a puree.

Pour them through a fine mesh strainer so that the raspberry puree will be separated from the seeds.

Strain the raspberry puree to remove the seeds.

When you have completely separated out the seeds from the puree, pour it back into your pan. Then add in the gelatin mixture.

Adding the gelatin to the raspberry sauce.

You will turn the heat to medium and stir constantly. When the mixture reaches a boil, let it boil for 1 minute and then remove it from the heat.

Next, you will add the heavy whipping cream into your mixing bowl. You will whisk this until the cream holds stiff peaks, just don't over mix it or it turns into butter.

    Can you put this in fridge overnight to set rather then freezer?

      Yes, if you have plenty of time, the refrigerator will work just fine! Hope this helps. 🙂
