Easy Lemon Curd Mousse

This Lemon Curd Mousse is so elegant, yet easy enough to make an ordinary day special. It's a creamy, fluffy lemon cloud on top of a graham cracker-y crunch.

Instructions

For the graham cracker base:

  1. Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line a sheet pan with foil for easy cleanup, if desired.
  2. Place graham crackers in a zippered bag and seal tightly. Using a rolling pin, roll over the bag until crackers are until finely crushed. Transfer crackers crumbs to a medium-size bowl.
  3. Add the brown sugar, coconut, pecans and melted butter to the bowl with the cracker crumbs. Stir well to thoroughly coat the mixture with the butter. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crunchy. Stir halfway through to redistribute.
  4. Divide the mixture between 4 six or eight-ounce jars or ramekins and pack it down slightly with the rounded tip of a spoon. Allow to cool completely while preparing the mousse.

For the mousse:

  1. Whisk the cream cheese in a medium-size bowl until smooth and lump-free. Add the lemon curd and whisk together until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  2. With a whisk or a handheld mixer whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form when you pull up the whisk or mixer.
  3. Fold the whipped cream into the lemon curd mixture until just combined.
  4. Divide the mousse between the 4 jars/ramekins. Garnish with whipped cream and fresh fruit, if desired.
