I was so excited to discover frozen passion fruit puree cubes in the supermarket freezer; this delicious and flavorful fruit is sometimes difficult to find and is usually quite expensive. I knew I wanted to create something special for Yom Tov with it. This airy and exquisite-tasting mousse cup is elegant and easy at the same time, perfect for a Yom Tov dessert!

  • 6 tablespoons pareve whipping cream

Vanilla Mousse Layer

  • 1 16-ounce (450-gram) container pareve whipping cream, minus 6 tablespoons for the fruit layer

Directions

For the Fruit Layer

In a mixer, beat pareve whipping cream until stiff. Set aside.

Passionfruits are pretty small… I’d assume about one fruit per cube, or one fruit per 2 cubes.
