🍍 Pineapple Mousse
Light, creamy, and tropical—pineapple mousse is a no-bake dessert that balances sweet and tangy flavors with a fluffy texture.
🧁 Ingredients
- 1 cup pineapple (fresh or canned, blended into puree)
- 1–2 tbsp sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp lemon juice (optional, enhances flavor)
- 1 cup whipping cream (chilled)
- 2–3 tbsp condensed milk (or regular milk + extra sugar)
- 1 tsp gelatin (or 2 tbsp hot water + agar agar for vegetarian option)
🍍 Instructions
1. Prepare pineapple base
- Blend pineapple into a smooth puree
- Strain if you want a silky texture
- Mix in sugar and lemon juice
2. Set the thickener
- Dissolve gelatin in a little hot water (or use agar agar as directed)
- Let it cool slightly, then mix into pineapple puree
3. Whip the cream
- In a cold bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form
- Add condensed milk and gently mix
4. Combine
- Fold pineapple mixture into whipped cream slowly
- Keep it light and airy (don’t overmix)
5. Chill
- Spoon into cups or glasses
- Refrigerate for 3–4 hours until set
🍽️ Serve with
- Pineapple chunks or mint leaves on top
- Crushed biscuits or sponge cake layer for extra texture
🔑 Tips
- Fresh pineapple gives brighter flavor, but canned is easier
- Don’t overwhip cream—it should stay fluffy, not grainy
- For extra tropical taste, add a little coconut milk
If you want, I can also show you a layered pineapple mousse cake, a 3-ingredient quick version, or a gelatin-free whipped dessert version.
