Brazilian Passion Fruit Mousse (Maracuja)

By: VALERIEKOOKA 
"This is Brazilian favorite (and an old family recipe), and takes no cooking at all. It's a little tart and tangy for those of you who don't like your desserts to be too sweet."

Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 8 passion fruits
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups cream

Directions

  1. Break passion fruits in half, and empty contents into a bowl. Use a little water to help rinse the juice out of the skins. Mix with hands to soften pulp. Strain through a sieve or cheesecloth. Stir in sugar and sweetened condensed milk.
  2. In a chilled bowl, beat cream until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the cream into the passion fruit mixture, then quickly fold in remaining cream until no streaks remain. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
