How to Make Berry Lemon Mousse Parfait

  1. In a large, chilled mixing bowl, beat 2 cups heavy cream, 1/3 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon lemon extract with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  2. In a medium bowl, gently toss 2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries – your choice!) with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar.
  3. Layer the lemon mousse and berries in individual serving glasses or dessert dishes. Start with a layer of mousse, followed by a layer of berries, and repeat until the glass is full.
  4. For best results, chill the parfait in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to set. Serve chilled and enjoy!
