Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cottage cheese
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Garnish

  • Fresh raspberries
  • Mint leaves

Instructions

  1. Blend Ingredients: Combine the cottage cheese, fresh raspberries, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract in a blender or food processor. Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are thoroughly combined for the perfect mousse texture.
  2. Portion: Spoon the smooth mousse evenly into four serving glasses or bowls, dividing the mixture so each serving is equal and ready to chill.
  3. Chill: Refrigerate the mousse servings for at least 1 hour. This chilling step helps the flavors meld together and allows the mousse to firm up to a light, airy consistency.
  4. Garnish & Serve: Before serving, garnish each mousse portion with fresh raspberries and a few mint leaves to add a pop of color and freshness to the dessert.

Notes

  • Frozen Raspberries: Can be used instead of fresh. Ensure they are thawed and excess liquid drained before blending to avoid a watery mousse.
  • Dairy-Free Option: Substitute regular cottage cheese with a dairy-free or vegan cottage cheese alternative to make this recipe suitable for vegan diets.
  • Flavor Variations: Experiment by adding different berry varieties or flavored syrups such as raspberry or vanilla syrup to customize the mousse to your taste.
  • Storage: Store leftover mousse in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days to maintain freshness.
