  • Preparation Time: 20 minutes
  • Cooking Time: 10 minutes
  • Difficulty: 1
  • Spiciness: 0
  • Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 300 ml Apricot, raw

  • pieces Sugar, white

  • 10 pieces Gelatin powder, unsweetened

  • pieces Lemon, fresh, without shell

  • 700 ml Sweet cream

Steps

  1. Soak the gelatin in cold water and let it sit for about 10 minutes to soften. Place a small pot on the stove and add sugar, lemon zest, and apricot puree. Heat everything gently over low heat just until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and add the soaked gelatin, which has been well drained. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.

  2. Whip the cream almost to stiff peaks (it should still be glossy, with the tips of the peaks standing upright). Gradually fold it into the slightly cooled apricot puree.

  3. Once you have a completely smooth and uniform mixture, pour it into molds or glasses and chill. If using glasses, refrigerate the mousse; if using molds, freeze it to make it easier to remove later.
