Method
 

How to Make Ricotta Mousse
  1. Begin by puréeing the ricotta and fresh raspberries in a blender until you achieve a beautifully smooth texture. Once done, transfer this luscious mixture to a large bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, take your whipping cream and beat it until it thickens. Then, sprinkle in the powdered sugar and keep beating until stiff peaks form, resulting in a light and fluffy goodness.
  3. Gently fold the fluffy whipped cream into the ricotta mixture in three stages. This delicate folding technique is key to maintaining that wonderful airy volume we love in mousse!
  4. Spoon your mousse into elegant individual serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This chilling is essential to ensure the mousse sets properly.
  5. Just before you're ready to impress your guests, garnish with additional fresh raspberries and sprigs of mint for that finishing touch of freshness and flair!
