🥣 Instructions:

1. Prepare the Lemon Base

   • Zest and juice the lemons into a bowl. Set aside.

2. Dissolve the Gelatin

   • If using powdered gelatin, sprinkle it over 2 tbsp of hot water. Stir until fully dissolved.

   • If using gelatin sheets, soak them in cold water for 5 minutes, then drain and dissolve in hot water.

3. Whip the Cream

   • In a cold mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Chill in the fridge while preparing the rest.

4. Beat the Egg Whites

   • In another bowl, beat the egg whites until they begin to foam. Gradually add the sugar while continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.

5. Combine Lemon, Gelatin & Cream

   • Mix the lemon juice and zest with the dissolved gelatin and optional vanilla extract. Gently fold in the whipped cream until smooth.

6. Fold in the Egg Whites

   • Carefully fold the stiff egg whites into the lemon-cream mixture in batches. Use a spatula and gentle movements to preserve the airy texture.

7. Chill

   • Spoon the mousse into individual glasses or a large serving bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours, or until set.
