- 1 cup heavy cream cold
- 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup fresh lemon juice about 3-4 lemons
- Zest of 1 lemon optional, for garnish
In a large bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk and fresh lemon juice until fully combined. The mixture will thicken slightly.
Divide the mousse into serving glasses or bowls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to set.
Before serving, garnish with lemon zest or fresh berries if desired.
- Stores in the fridge for up to 3 days (if it lasts that long).
- For a stronger lemon flavor, add an extra tablespoon of juice.
- Vegan? Swap heavy cream for coconut cream and use vegan condensed milk.
