Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 14 oz can Condensed Milk
- 1 cup Concentrated Passion Fruit Juice
- 1 ⅓ cup Heavy Cream
- to taste Passion Fruit Pulp
- to taste Sugar
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: condensed milk, concentrated passion fruit juice, and heavy cream. This will ensure that your preparation goes smoothly.
- In a blender, combine the condensed milk and concentrated passion fruit juice. Blend on high for about 2 minutes. You want to ensure that these two elements are well mixed and incorporate air for a fluffier texture.
- Next, gradually add the heavy cream to the blender. Remember to start at a low speed so you don’t splatter! Blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Once blended, taste the mixture and add sugar as needed. Depending on how sweet you like it, this is your chance to adjust the flavor profile!
- Pour the creamy mousse mixture into a deep serving platter or individual bowls. This dessert is perfect for sharing, or you can keep it all to yourself!
- Now, here’s the fun part: place your mousse in the freezer. Allow it to chill for about 1 hour or until it’s firm. Check to see the texture; it should be set but still creamy.
- While the mousse is freezing, prepare the passion fruit pulp. Heat it gently in a small saucepan and add some sugar to sweeten it up. This syrup will act as a delicious topping.
- Once the mousse has set, take it out of the freezer. Let it sit for a few minutes to soften slightly.
- Finally, generously pour the warm passion fruit pulp over each serving. This topping not only adds flavor but also makes the presentation stunning.
- Enjoy your homemade Musse de Maracujá with family and friends, and get ready for the compliments!
Notes
- Storage: Keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer. It can last up to a week, but the texture is best enjoyed fresh.

- Pairing: This dessert pairs beautifully with fresh berries or a light fruit salad on the side.
- Presentation: To elevate your serving, consider adding edible flowers or mint leaves as a garnish when serving.
- Variations: Feel free to experiment by using different fruit juices or even a hint of coconut to create new flavors.
