Pink Raspberry Mousse Cups are airy, elegant desserts with a vibrant raspberry flavor and a beautiful pink hue. Perfect for special occasions or an easy yet impressive treat.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 4 oz cream cheese or 1/2 cup white chocolate (optional, for creaminess)
  • 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin or equivalent stabilizer
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh raspberries and mint leaves for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons water (for dissolving gelatin)

Instructions

  1. Puree the raspberries in a blender and strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine raspberry puree, sugar, and water. Heat gently until sugar dissolves.
  3. Stir in the gelatin until fully dissolved. Let the mixture cool slightly.
  4. Whip the cream in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form.
  5. If using, beat in cream cheese or melted white chocolate until smooth.
  6. Gently fold the cooled raspberry mixture and vanilla extract into the whipped cream mixture until fully combined.
  7. Spoon or pipe the mousse into serving cups.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours, or until set.
  9. Top with whipped cream, fresh raspberries, and mint leaves before serving.

Notes

  • Use thawed frozen raspberries if fresh aren’t available.
  • Ensure gelatin is fully dissolved to help mousse set properly.
  • Chill overnight for firmer texture and better flavor melding.
  • Use piping bags for a neater presentation.
  • Top just before serving to maintain freshness of garnishes.
