Method

Mousse Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Gelatin

    In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.

  2. 2

    Whip the Cream

    In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.

  3. 3

    Melt the Gelatin

    Gently heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave for about 10 seconds until dissolved. Allow it to cool slightly.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    In another bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the melted gelatin into the whipped cream mixture, then fold in the beaten egg whites until no streaks remain.

  5. 5

    Chill the Mousse

    Spoon the mousse into serving cups and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
