Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Add the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt; beat until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon cream cheese mixture until smooth and fluffy. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
- Spoon or pipe the mousse into individual serving cups and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
- Before serving, garnish with additional lemon zest, lemon slices, and graham cracker crumbs if desired.
Chef’s Tips
- For an extra tangy flavor, you can increase the amount of lemon juice.
- Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for easier blending.
- This mousse can be made a day in advance, allowing flavors to develop even further.
