In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 3 tbsp cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Gently heat (microwave 10–15 sec or in a small pan) until completely dissolved. Set aside.
Make Strawberry Puree
In a blender or food processor, blend the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Whip the Cream
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
Combine Gelatin & Strawberry Puree
Stir the dissolved gelatin into the strawberry puree until fully incorporated.
Fold in Whipped Cream
Gently fold the whipped cream into the strawberry mixture in three additions.
Be careful to keep it light and airy.
Chill
Spoon mousse into serving glasses or bowls.
Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours until set.
Serve
Garnish with fresh strawberries, mint leaves, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
💡 Tips:
For extra flavor, add a splash of strawberry liqueur or a few drops of almond extract.
Use frozen strawberries if fresh aren’t available; just thaw and drain excess liquid.
This mousse is perfect for individual servings or as a layered dessert in a trifle.
