Description

A light, fluffy dessert featuring fresh blackberries blended with cream for a sweet, tangy treat. Perfect for summer gatherings or as a refreshing finish to any meal.


Ingredients

1 1/2 cups fresh blackberries

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon honey or sweetener of choice

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. In a blender or food processor, combine the blackberries, lemon juice, and honey. Blend until smooth.
  2. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds, collecting the puree in a bowl.
  3. In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the blackberry puree into the whipped cream, ensuring it's well incorporated.
  5. Spoon the mousse into serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  6. Before serving, garnish with extra blackberries or a dollop of whipped cream.

Notes

If using frozen blackberries, thaw and drain any excess liquid before blending.

For a dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream or a dairy-free whipping cream alternative.

If you prefer a sweeter mousse, adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or powdered sugar to taste.

Straining the blackberry puree removes seeds, but you can skip this step if preferred.

This mousse can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
