Scale
Ingredients
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh raspberries and mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: Combine the cottage cheese, fresh raspberries, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a blender or food processor. Blend thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring the raspberries are fully pureed for an even texture.
- Portion: Spoon the mousse evenly into four serving glasses or bowls, dividing the mixture so each portion is equal in size.
- Chill: Place the mousses in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. This chilling time helps the flavors meld beautifully and allows the mousse to firm up for a perfect texture.
- Garnish & Serve: Before serving, garnish each mousse with fresh raspberries and a few mint leaves for a fresh, colorful presentation that adds an extra burst of flavor and aroma.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe raspberries for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
- For a smoother texture, you can strain the cottage cheese beforehand.
- Maple syrup is a great vegan alternative to honey.
- Chilling time can be extended up to 3 hours for a firmer mousse.
- Serve immediately after garnishing for optimal freshness.
