This recipe for a blueberry mousse cake is delicious and really fresh in flavor! It is also quite low on sugar.
Recipe: Lime, vanilla and blueberry mousse on coconut crust
Ingredients
Crust
- 400 ml shredded coconut
- 150 ml sugar
- 1 egg
- 50 g butter
Mousse
- 500 ml vanilla and blueberry yoghurt
- 150 ml lime juice around 3 limes
- 100 ml powdered sugar depending on how sweet the yoghurt is
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 6 sheets gelatin
- 200 ml cream
Decoration
- 200 ml blueberries frozen or fresh
Instructions
Crust
- Heat the oven to 175°C (350°F)
- Mix all ingredients to a smooth dough
- Press it out into a greased cake pan with removable sides
- Bake in oven for 10-20 min until golden
- Let it cool while you make the rest
Mousse
- Squeeze out the juice from the limes
- Mix with the sugar and then the yoghurt in a large bowl
- Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water (add them one by one so that they don't stick)
- Whip the cream until fluffy and beyond (not butter..)
- Boil some water in a pot
- Put the gelatin in a metallic container and then place it over the boiling water
- Stir continuously until all gelatin has melted.
- Take 100 ml of the lime/yoghurt mix and pour over the gelatin liquid. Stir until it has blended and then pour everything back to the bowl with the rest of the yoghurt. Stir to blend it thoroughly and lastly add the whipped cream and stir it together.
- Pour the liquid mousse onto the crust (that should now have cooled off).
- Place the cake in the fridge to solidify (takes a few hours)
- When it is time to serve it then use a knife to release the cake from the cake pan sides before removing the sides of the pan. Now add the frozen (or fresh) blueberries.
