Recipe ingredients
- 1 can (435 g) tin chestnut puree
- 1 cup (250 mL) icing sugar
- 1/4 cup (60 mL) thawed frozen concentrated orange juice*
- 1 tsp. (5 mL) vanilla
- 2 cups (500 mL) whipping cream*.
Preparation
In a large bowl, beat chestnut purée until smooth. Gradually mix in icing sugar, orange juice and vanilla.
In another bowl, whip cream into soft peaks. Fold whipped cream into chestnut mixture.
Spoon mousse into 10 sherbet or wine glasses.
Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm.
Chestnut mousse will keep 2 days refrigerated or 1 week frozen.
Suggestion
Serve chestnut mousse in homemade or store-bought chocolate cups. If you wish, top it with a dollop of whipped cream and some shaved chocolate. For an interesting variation, replace the orange juice with orange liqueur.* We recommend Selection and Irresistibles products.
