Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup passion fruit juice fresh pulp or frozen
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14 oz / 395 g
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream or 1 can thick cream
  • Fresh passion fruit pulp for topping, optional

Method
 

  1. Prepare the juice – Scoop out the pulp of fresh passion fruits. Blend with a little water, then strain to remove seeds. If using frozen pulp, thaw before use.
  2. Blend the mousse – In a blender, add passion fruit juice, condensed milk, and cream. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Chill – Pour into small dessert glasses or one large dish. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  4. Top and serve – Spoon fresh passion fruit pulp on top before serving. The seeds add crunch and a tangy kick.

Notes

  • Taste your passion fruit juice first. If it’s very tart, you can add an extra spoon of condensed milk.
  • For a lighter version, swap heavy cream with Greek yogurt.
  • The mousse is best enjoyed within 2–3 days of making it.
  • Serving it in small glasses makes it feel extra fancy, even if it’s simple to make.
