How to Make Limoncello Raspberry Mascarpone Mousse

  1. Gently rinse 1 cup of fresh raspberries and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the zest of 1 lemon and 1/2 cup of lemon curd.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of limoncello liqueur and whisk vigorously until thoroughly combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup of heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon of lemon extract.
  6. Gently fold in 8 ounces of mascarpone cheese until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. In 8 large shot glasses or ramekins, layer the lemon curd mixture and the mascarpone mousse evenly and attractively. Start with a spoonful of lemon curd mixture, top with the mousse, and repeat.
  8. Top each verrine with a few fresh raspberries. Garnish with a fresh mint leaf or a small sprig of lemon verbena.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to set.
