Frozen Lemon Mousse Cones Recipes

FROZEN LEMON MOUSSE

Steps:

• Prepare ice-water bath in large bowl. Juice 1 lemon; reserve juice. Juice additional lemons to yield 1 cup. Make lemon curd: Place 1 cup lemon juice, sugar, egg yolks, whole eggs, and butter in saucepan; whisk to combine. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly until it begins to boil, about 7 minutes.
• Strain curd through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl set in the ice bath. Stir periodically until cool; remove from ice bath. Place plastic wrap directly on surface of curd to prevent a skin from forming; refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.
• Place 1 1/2 cups chilled heavy cream in large mixing bowl; whisk until soft peaks form. Reserve 1/2 cup lemon curd for sauce; add remaining lemon curd to whipped cream. Fold gently until well combined.
• Place an 8-inch nonstick springform pan on baking sheet. Transfer mousse to springform pan. Place in freezer on sheet until firm, at least 4 hours.
• Drain candied lemon zest; reserve syrup. Make the lemon sauce: Whisk 1/3 cup syrup, reserved 1/2 cup lemon curd, and reserved juice of 1 lemon in a small bowl. Remove frozen mousse from freezer and let warm 4 to 5 minutes at room temperature. Meanwhile, whisk creme fraiche and remaining 2 tablespoons cream in medium bowl until soft peaks form. Remove sides of springform pan. Slice mousse and place on plates. Spoon lemon sauce around mousse; top with creme fraiche. Garnish with candied zest, and serve.

FROZEN LEMON MOUSSE

Steps:

• Cut 2-inch holes out of the bottom of a large tin foil roasting pan in neat rows, leaving 1 to 2 inches in between the holes. Invert the pan and place paper cooler cups in the holes to hold them upright during freezing.
• In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan combine the lemon juice, sugar, yolks, egg, and butter. Over medium heat, whisk the mixture constantly until thickened. Strain it into a bowl set over ice and chill it, stirring to thicken slightly. Fold in the whipped cream and pour or pipe into paper cones set in the prepared tin foil roasting pan. Freeze overnight. Peel off the paper and serve the cone flat side down and serve with berries.
• In a small saucepan bring water, sugar and vanilla bean to a boil. Add blackberries and turn off the heat. Fish the berries out of the hot liquid with a slotted spoon, and transfer them to a plate in a single layer and allow to cool.
• Yield: 1 cup

CHOCOLATE-GINGER MOUSSE CONES

Steps:

• For the mousse: Place a medium bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in a medium microwave-safe bowl on low power for 3 minutes. Let cool slightly. Pour the cream into the chilled bowl and whip until it holds stiff peaks. Fold one-third of the cream into the chocolate. Fold half of the remaining cream into the chocolate and then fold in the rest of the cream. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the cones: Preheat a pizzelle iron.
• Whisk together the flour, sugar, butter, milk, ginger, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, salt, eggs and vanilla extract until smooth. Coat the pizzelle iron with the cooking spray, then close to continue heating.
• When the iron is hot, spoon about 1 tablespoon of the batter onto each pizzelle well. Slowly close and let cook until golden, 50 seconds to 1 minute. Immediately roll one of the cookies around a wooden cone mold, slide it off, and transfer to a rack to cool completely. Leave the other cookie(s) on the iron while you work with the first one--they will firm up if you take them off the heat. Continue cooking and rolling in this way with the remaining batter.
• Just before serving, fill a large resealable plastic bag with the mousse and snip off one corner. Dividing evenly, pipe the mousse into the cones. Serve immediately.

FRESH LEMON MOUSSE

Steps:

• In a large heat-proof bowl, whisk together the 3 whole eggs, 3 egg yolks, 1 cup sugar, the lemon zest, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for about 10 to 12 minutes until the mixture is thick like pudding. (I change to a whisk when the mixture starts to get thick.) Take off the heat and set aside for 15 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, until completely chilled.
• Place half the egg whites and a pinch of salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and continue to beat until the whites are stiff and shiny. Carefully fold the beaten whites into the cold lemon mixture with a rubber spatula. Place the cream in the same bowl of the electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (no need to clean the bowl) and beat on high speed until the cream forms stiff peaks. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture. Fold in the lemon curd, and pour into a 7-inch-diameter, 3-inch-deep souffle dish. Decorate with sweetened whipped cream and lemon slices that have been cut into quarters. Chill and serve cold.
• Place the cream, sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on medium and then high speed until the cream just forms still peaks. Spoon the whipped cream into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip.

• Place 8 ring molds, 3 inches in diameter and 2 1/4 inches high, on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Divide the mousse among the molds, filling each with about 3/4 cup. Place in the freezer on the sheet until firm, at least 4 hours.
• Drain the candied lemon zest; reserve the syrup. Whisk 1/3 cup syrup, reserved 1/2 cup lemon curd, and juice of 1 lemon in a small bowl. Place the frozen mousse on plates; let warm 4 to 5 minutes before removing the molds. Meanwhile, whisk the crème fraîche and remaining 2 tablespoons cream in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Remove the molds, spoon lemon sauce around the mousse; top with crème fraîche. Garnish with candied zest; serve.
• Remove the zest from the lemons with a vegetable peeler, keeping the pieces long. Remove the white pith using a paring knife. Cut into a fine julienne using a very sharp knife. Place the julienned zest in a small bowl; cover with boiling water. Let stand 30 minutes; drain.
• Bring the sugar and the cool water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. When the sugar is completely dissolved, add the julienned zest, reduce heat to medium low, and cook 10 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand overnight. Store the zest in the syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
