Coconut Mousse

Method

Coconut Mousse

  1. 1

    Prepare the Gelatin

    In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over 2 tablespoons of cold water. Let it bloom for about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat the Coconut Mixture

    In a saucepan, combine the coconut milk, sugar, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium heat until warm but not boiling. Stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.

  3. 3

    Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Gently fold the whipped cream into the coconut mixture until well combined. Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
