🍰 Step-by-Step: Making No-Bake Strawberry Mousse Cups

1. Blend the Strawberry Puree for Mousse

Blend strawberries with lemon juice and powdered sugar until smooth. Strain if desired. Set aside to cool.

Mix crushed biscuits with melted butter. Press a spoonful into the bottom of each cup. Chill in fridge for 15 minutes.

3. Whip the Cream for a Fluffy Mousse Texture

In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.

In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in the cooled strawberry puree.

Gently fold the whipped cream into the strawberry-cream cheese mixture until fully combined and fluffy.

6. Decorate Your Strawberry Mousse Dessert Cups

Pipe or spoon the mousse into small jars or dessert cups. Chill for at least 2 hours (overnight is even better).
