Cranberry Mousse

Country

We live about 100 miles from Cape Cod, which is known for its cranberries. When we spent a weekend there, we toured the Cranberry World Visitors Center, which is where I found this recipe. When I made it for our fellowship group at church, everyone wanted the recipe. You’ll be surprised it’s so easy to make with just four ingredients.

SERVINGS: 6

CATEGORY: Dessert

METHOD: Chill

TIME: Prep: 20 min. + chilling

Ingredients:

  • 1 can (16 ounces) jellied cranberry sauce
  • 1 cup cranberry juice
  • 1 package (3 ounces) cranberry or raspberry gelatin
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped

Directions:

In a large saucepan, bring the cranberry sauce and juice to a boil; cook and stir until smooth. Stir in the gelatin until dissolved. Cool slightly; transfer to a bowl. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until mixture begins to thicken.
    Fold in the whipped cream. Spoon into dessert dishes. Chill for 3-4 hours or until firm. Yield: 6 servings.


  • Re: Cranberry Mousse

    My husband and daughter don't care for traditional cranberry sauce, but they think this recipe is A-OK. So this is what I make every Thanksgiving, but as a side dish, not a dessert.
