Instructions

  1. Combine strawberries and sugar in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Strain with a fine mesh strainer into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 3-4 minutes or until slightly thickened.
  2. Combine cold water and gelatin, mix well, and let rest 1 minute. Add to the berry mixture and stir. Simmer on medium-low heat for about 2 minutes more or until gelatin is completely dissolved.
  3. Pour into a bowl and refrigerate to cool until slightly thickened, about 45-60 minutes.
  4. Once cooled and thickened, mix the strawberry mixture with a hand mixer for 2 minutes.
  5. Add heavy cream and vanilla. Continue mixing until thick and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Spoon the mousse into dessert cups and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
