Easy Whipped Gelatin
This easy whipped gelatin recipe with a mousse-like texture and fresh fruit flavor is the perfect no-bake easy, light dessert.
Yield: 4 servings
Equipment
- Hand mixer
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups (14 fluid ounces) cold water
- 1 tablespoon (8 g) unflavored powdered gelatin
- ¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
- 1 ounce freeze-dried fruit ground into a powder
- 5 tablespoons (2 ½ fluid ounces) heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- In a small bowl, place about 2 tablespoons of the water and sprinkle with the powdered gelatin. Mix thoroughly and allow to sit until the gelatin swells in the liquid.
- Place about 1 cup of the remaining water in a medium, heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat and bring it to a simmer.
- Add the sugar and freeze-dried fruit powder, and whisk to combine well. Add the swelled gelatin and whisk constantly until the gelatin is completely melted.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and transfer the mixture to a medium-sized bowl. Add the remaining cold water, and whisk to combine well.
- Place the bowl in the refrigerator (for about 1 1/2 hours) or freezer (for about 30 minutes) until the gelatin is beginning to set. It will cling to the sides of the bowl as you rotate it.
- Remove the chilled gelatin from the refrigerator or freezer.
- Whip with a handheld mixer, for about 3 minutes or until the mixture froths and begins to lighten in color as a result of incorporating air into the mixture.
- Add the cream, and whip again until completely combined and the mixture is increased by about 50% from its original volume.
- Transfer the mixture to serving bowls or jars, cover each container and refrigerate until fully set (about another 2 hours). Serve chilled.
