StrawbryMousse the Messoh

Whip this simple dessert up in minutes, with just three ingredients! Guests will fall in love with the impossibly smooth and creamy texture, and it’s a wonderful way to use up a bounty of fresh summer strawberries. Serve the thick strawberry mousse at parties, summer barbecues, romantic date nights, or any time you’re craving a quick dessert that’s sure to impress everyone who tries it.


🍓 8 oz vegan cream cheese (or coconut cream)
🍓 4 oz vegan yogurt (or additional vegan cream cheese / coconut cream)
🍓 1 cup powdered sugar (or sugar free alternative)
🍓 5 medium size strawberries
🍓 1/4 tsp vanilla bean paste (optional)


🍓 1. If using the vegan cream cheese option, let this ingredient come to room temperature so it will be easier to blend and will yield a smoother final result. If using the coconut cream option, open the can to make sure its contents are thick and creamy, not rock solid. Every now and then, you may encounter a can with hard or flakey cream. Unfortunately, such cans will not work well to make mousse.

🍓 2. Cut the stems off of the strawberries. Blend or mash the berries until they are fully pureed.

🍓 3. Add all remaining ingredients, and blend until smooth. If you are making mousse with hand beaters, look for stiff peaks to form. A food processor, hand mixer, or a good blender will give you the fluffiest, airy strawberry mousse, because they whip air into the recipe. If you only have a fork, it can work as long as you do not mind that the texture will not be nearly as light and fluffy.

🍓 4. After blending the no bake recipe, transfer the strawberry cream to glasses, bowls, or cups. The mousse dessert will thicken considerably as it chills.

🍓 5. Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight covered container for up to four days. While you technically can freeze the dessert, it will no longer have the best creamy texture.


🍓 If you opt for frozen strawberries, be sure to fully thaw the berries. Pat off any ice crystals and excess moisture before beginning, to avoid runny or watery mousse.
