Strawberry Cream Mousse

April 23, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 12 Comments

Hi everyone,

I’m writing this on Saturday while I wait for my dinner to be done, and I have to say what a gorgeous day!  I got up early and headed to the Farmers Market for the freshest, most beautiful produce.  It’s sunny, warm with the slightest breeze, I simply love it out!!  However instead of spending the day outside, I worked in the kitchen making today’s farmers market fresh scrumptious recipe, along with my, flavorful, light dinner.  Oh I can’t wait for it to be done.  Hopefully if the pictures come out I can share it with you tomorrow.  At the Farmers Market I picked up a case of the most sweetest strawberries ever.  They are so good, juicy, plump and simply my favorite fruit of all time.  I bought a case last Saturday and I’m proud to say I ate it all.  I didn’t bake with it or anything, I just ate them.  But for today’s recipe, I did use them in this creamy, sweet strawberry mousse.

Strawberry Cream Mousse

Not only is my mousse topped with sugar-coated strawberries, but I also hid some inside, for a perfect little surprise!  I have to say you can never have enough strawberries!  This dessert is so simple to make to and only contains a few ingredients.  The mousse is made with Coconut Cream that I bought at Trader Joe’s.  You place the can of coconut cream in the fridge for 24 – 48 hours, don’t touch it, when you open the can up you have coconut meat.  Coconut meat, I don’t know why they call it meat, it’s kind of weird, but anyway, the coconut is super thick, here’s a picture so you can see what I’m talking about.

Trader Joe's Coconut Cream


Here I am scooping it out.  Just look at the rich, thickness of the cream.  Once you start to beat it, it becomes light and fluffy like whip cream!

Coconut Cream

I placed my cream in my stand mixer and beat it until it became fluffy and added the secret weapon, strawberries   But not just plain strawberries, I cooked them on the stove top so they would soften up and leave me with a nice thick, sweet juice.  I was looking for some plump berry juice here.  Once my strawberries cooled, I beat them in coconut cream and got the most flavorful liquefied coconut juice ever.  But don’t worry if your mixture turns to liquid, it actual makes it easy for pouring into your cups.  Once you place the mixture back in the refrigerator to rest, they harden back up, kind of like pudding does.

Strawberry Cream Mousse

For an added bonus, I chopped up 2 cups of strawberries and sprinkled  it with stevia, than I let it marinated the strawberries for a little bit.  The longer the stevia or sugar sits on the berries, the juicer and sweeter the strawberries get.  My Husband loves them this way!  I remember as a kid, my parents would by the frozen sweetened strawberries, you know the stuff in the box and they would serve it over ice cream and hot fudge.  Those sundaes were our Sunday treat.  My Sister and I used to get so excited when we would go to Wilson Farms the local convenient store because we knew sundaes were going to be made!  That’s what I think of when ever I marinate strawberries.

Strawberry Cream Mousse

Here is my creamy, dreamy, strawberry mousse.  So good, so rich and just simply perfect!  Not only is this perfect, but it’s a dessert for everyone because it’s also vegan and gluten-free!

Strawberry Cream Mousse

These little Strawberry Mousse cups would be perfect for serving for a brunch, Mother’s Day and simply for a wonderful light dessert to have any night of the week.  I have to say I enjoyed making them.   I love beating cream until it becomes fluffy, plus I simply love cream based desserts, I think that is why I love yogurt so much!  🙂

Well my Friends, I forgot my glasses at work and the computer is killing my eyes, time to shut it down for the night.

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

Happy Thursday! I can’t believe it’s 4th of Ju Happy Thursday! I can’t believe it’s 4th of July weekend already! I’m not sure what our plans are, but I’m sure cooking on the bbq will be happening. It should be a nice weekend. 
🇺🇸
I thought I would share with you the little corner in my dining room that I decorated for the 4th of July. If you do not have any patriotic decor, all you have to do is add a flag to it. 
🇺🇸
Do you have any plans for this holiday weekend?

Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we never eat our meals at the dining room table. We always eat at the kitchen counter. It’s convenient, easy to clean and it’s close to the food. Plus as a bonus, we get a nice view of the backyard.
💕
Just because you eat at the counter doesn’t mean you can’t create a pretty place setting. I like creating a place setting for my husband and I. It makes for a lovely meal and feels a little fancier.
💕
I was gifted this gorgeous flatware from @inoxartisans. This is the Chantilly Flatware 5 piece set. It’s handcrafted with 18/8 stainless steel. It has a nice weight to it, well made and it’s comfortable in your hand. The flatware is also dishwasher safe. 
💕
You can dress up the Chantilly Flatware with an elegant meal or use it for a more casual meal. If you are looking for new flatware INOX Artisans has a wide variety of styles that comes in gold, copper and silver.
💕
Do you eat at the dining room table or do you prefer the kitchen counter?

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.
🦋
Do you get butterflies in your garden?

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.
🐾
My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.
🌻
My beautiful “Summer” cutout sign is from @krumpetshomedecor and it’s also the deal of the week. You get an extra 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link is in my bio.

What’s your favorite thing to do in the summer?
