Mascarpone Raspberry And Pineapple Mousse Recipes

MASCARPONE WITH RASPBERRY AND PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Layer the phyllo sheets on top of each other. Using the cookie cutter, cut out 12 rounds and press them into the mini muffin tin. Bake until golden brown and crisp, about 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Meanwhile, combine the mascarpone, pineapple, and raspberry yogurt in a small bowl and stir to combine. Spoon the mascarpone mixture into the phyllo cups. Using a vegetable peeler, shave some chocolate onto the top of the mascarpone mixture and serve.

MASCARPONE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Prepare a double boiler. Whisk the egg yolks and sugar over the double boiler until lightened and fluffy and the mixture reaches 140 degrees F.
• Transfer to a mixer bowl. Whip on medium-high with the whisk attachment until cooled and lightened in color, 4 to 5 minutes. Whip in the mascarpone. Add the liqueur, vanilla and salt, mixing until smooth. Add the heavy cream on low speed and blend. Scrape the bowl and whisk and then whip on medium speed until medium peaks form. Chill until ready to use.

LIMONCELLO, RASPBERRY & MASCARPONE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Rinse and drain raspberries, gently pat dry and set aside.
• In a small bowl, stir together the lemon zest and the lemon curd. Stir in the Limoncello liqueur, whisking briskly until combined.
• In a separate bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Beat in the lemon extract. Fold in the mascarpone and stir gently; combine well.
• In 8 large shot-glasses or ramekins, evenly and attractively layer the lemon curd mixture and the mascarpone mousse (use a pastry bag fitted with a plain tip, if desired).
• Top with the fresh berries, and garnish with a mint leaf or sprig of lemon verbena.
• Chill until serving time.
