Rasberry & Mascarpone Mousse Mille Feuille
Serves: 6 individual desserts
 
Ingredients
  • 1 Sheet Frozen Puff Pastry, thawed
  • ½ recipe Strawberry Mousse(make with raspberries instead)
  • 1 cup Mascarpone
  • ½ cup Powdered Sugar
  • Juice of ½ a Lemon
  • ½ cup Heavy Whipping Cream, whipped to stiff peaks
  • 41 Raspberries
  • Powdered Sugar, for dusting
  • Mint leaves, to garnish
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a non-stick mat or parchment paper.
  2. Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll the thawed puff pastry sheet out to a square about 12"-14" on each side. Cut about 18 2" circles out of the dough and place on lined baking sheet., leaving about an inch of space between each round.
  3. Grease the bottom of another baking sheet and place it on top of the pastry filled baking sheet(greased side down so that it is right above the puff pastry circles). Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the circles are lightly golden brown. Remove from baking sheet and allow the circles to cool.
  4. For the Lemon mascarpone mousse: Beat the mascarpone and powdered sugar together in a mixing bowl until smooth. Add the lemon juice and mix in well. Fold the whipped cream gently into the mascarpone until combined. Mixture should be light and fluffy. Place the mousse in a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
  5. Place the raspberry mousse in a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
  6. TO ASSEMBLE:
  7. Start by placing three raspberries evenly spaced around one pastry circle. Pipe little mounds of mousse between each raspberry, alternating flavors. Place another pastry circle on top of the raspberry and mousse rounds. Repeat the same thing with the raspberries and mousse. Top with one more pastry circle. Dust lightly with powdered sugar and top with a raspberry and sprig of mint.
  8. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve right away.
