Strawberry Marshmallow Mousse – Recipe
This summerly dessert is super simple to make and I promise you your kids are gonna love it!
It is fresh, light and a little sweet, and for the grown ups I recommend serving it with ice-cold bubbles.
Happy Summer Ya’ll
This dessert a great alternative to ice-cream and the perfect substitute for chocolate mousse during the summer months.
I highly recommend you make your own marshmallows for this recipe because they taste so much better than store bought. If you do not have the time make sure you buy the plain ones, you do not want to mix flavors here.
Tip: You can also layer this mousse with any other mousse, or even put simple sponge cake for layers.
