Raspberry Eggnog Mousse
Ingredients:
10 ounces of raspberries thawed
Fresh squeezed lemon juice (this will enhance the flavor
of the raspberries)
1 1/2 cups eggnog (any brand)
6 oz. vanilla pudding mix (not instant) (I use Watkins)
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 cup kahlua liquor ( or for nonalcoholic use 1/4 of
espresso coffee, liquid)
Sprinkle of cinnamon
1 pint of whipping cream
Directions:
In a sauce pan combine raspberries,
fresh squeezed lemon juice and cornstarch. Stir
constantly over medium heat until thickened then cool.
In another sauce pan combine pudding, eggnog, nutmeg and
mix. Cook until thickened.
Remove from the heat and stir in kahlua. Cool then
chill.
Beat until smooth then fold in the whipped cream.
Spoon 1/2 mousse into dessert dish
then top with raspberry sauce then mousse again. Garnish
if desired with raspberries and mint sprigs if using
kahlua in the recipe or if using espresso garnish with
espresso beans and raspberries. Sprinkle with a little
cinnamon! Refrigerate.
If you don't want to use individual
dessert dishes this looks beautiful in a trifle bowl!
Serves 6-8.
