This Liqueur Mousse is really light but with a full flavour, tastes great on it’s own or served with a dollop of double cream.
Makes about 10-12 , 7-6g carbs per serve.
Amount | Ingredient | Carbs |
I tbspn | gelatine powder | nil |
¼ cup/2 fl oz | water | nil |
4 | large egg yolks | neg |
Natural sugar substitute equivalent to ½ cup sugar | nil | |
½ cup/4 fl oz | liqueur of choice** | 50g |
600 ml/1 pint | thickened cream 35% fat (whipped) | 21g |
Total Carbs | 71g |
In a small bowl/cup soften the gelatine in the water. Place this bowl/cup in a larger bowl with hot water in it & stir gelatine mixture until dissolved.
Beat egg yolks & natural sugar substitute in a large bowl until creamy. Add gelatine mixture & liqueur & mix well. Lightly fold in cream & mix until combined.
Pour mixture into dessert dishes/ramekins, cover & refrigerate several hours or overnight.
**Note re liqueurs.
These vary in amount of carbs & in recipe above I have used the average amount of carbs in
120 ml/4 fl oz of Kahlua or Grand Marnier or Crème de menthe.
