Ingredients
Fresh Strawberries
You will need around 2 cups of fresh strawberries for this recipe. Choose ripe berries for maximum sweetness and flavor. Rinse them thoroughly and remove the stems before using them in the mousse.
Granulated Sugar
Use about 1/2 cup of granulated sugar to sweeten the mixture. This sugar will help balance the tartness of the strawberries while adding just the right amount of sweetness to make your dessert irresistible.
Heavy Cream
You will need 1 cup of heavy cream to create that rich and creamy texture typical of a delicious mousse. The heavy cream will be whipped until stiff peaks form, giving the mousse its lightness.
Gelatin Powder
Incorporate 1 tablespoon of gelatin powder for stability. The gelatin helps set the mousse without making it too firm and ensures it holds its shape when served.
Vanilla Extract
Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for flavor enhancement. This ingredient complements the strawberries beautifully and adds warmth to the overall taste of your dessert.
