The blend of summery colors and flavors makes this mousse cup a pleasure both to look at and to eat. I love how it’s tasty and satisfying, while also being a light way to end off a full meal. Yields 16 cups.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 1 quart store-bought strawberry sorbet, softened

  • 2 cups diced frozen strawberries, combined with 1/4 cup sugar

Directions

Prepare the Mousse Cups

1.

Prepare one package of lime jello according to package directions. Divide among 16 eight- to 10-ounce (225- to 280-gram) decorative dessert cups and refrigerate.

2.

Prepare lime mousse: Place the second package of jello, eggs, one and a half cups whipped topping, and sugar into mixer. Beat until stiff.

3.

Pipe or spoon lime mousse over jello in cups, taking care to keep sides of the cups clean — it’s easier to do this when you pipe the mixture in. (I used about one-fourth to one-third cup of mousse per dessert cup.) Smooth the surface of the mousse and place in freezer.

4.

When the mousse is frozen, spoon one-fourth cup softened sorbet into each cup. Return to freezer.

5.

While the sorbet refreezes, beat remaining whipping cream and place in a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Drain liquid from the diced strawberries. Pipe a large swirl of pareve whipping cream in the center of each cup and sprinkle with diced strawberries.

6.

Remove mousse cups from freezer 10 minutes before serving to allow to soften a little.
