1poundfresh strawberriesequal to one 16 oz container
2tbspsugar
1 ½cupsheavy cream
2tbsppowdered sugar
Instructions
Wash and dry the strawberries. Dice them into small pieces. Place the diced strawberries and sugar in a blender and mix until pureed. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and powdered sugar and use an electric mixture to whip it into soft peaks.
Once you have soft peaks, gently fold the strawberry puree into the cream, until everything is well combined. If you will be dividing the strawberry mousse into smaller containers, pour it into the containers and refrigerate for 30 minutes to one hour. If you will not be using the mousse right away, it can be covered and refrigerated overnight, until you’re ready to use.
Notes
The strawberry mousse can be served with chocolate cake or brownie pieces. Simply prepare a chocolate cake or brownie mix according to the directions on the package. Bake as directed and once cooled break the cake/brownies into smaller pieces and place them in the bottom of glass bowls and top with strawberry mousse.
