Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Gelatin

    In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom. Then, gently heat it in the microwave or on the stove until fully dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Mix Passion Fruit and Condensed Milk

    In a mixing bowl, combine the passion fruit pulp and sweetened condensed milk. Stir until well blended.

  3. 3

    Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with sugar until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Slowly add the dissolved gelatin to the passion fruit and condensed milk mixture while stirring continuously. Then, gently fold in the whipped cream until fully combined.

  5. 5

    Chill the Mousse

    Pour the mousse mixture into serving cups or a large bowl. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once set, serve chilled. You can garnish with additional passion fruit pulp or whipped cream if desired.
