Ingredients
  

  • 0.25 oz. unflavored gelatin (1 packet)
  • 16 oz. strawberries (hulled and halved or quartered)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1¼ cups heavy cream (divided)
  • 3 oz. semisweet chocolate
  • whipped cream and strawberries (for garnish, if desired)

Instructions
 

  • Sprinkle the gelatin over ¼ cup of water in a small bowl and whisk it to combine. Set this aside.
  • Heat the strawberries and sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a rolling boil. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent boiling over.
  • Remove from the heat and mash the berries with a potato masher. Strain the berries using a mesh strainer over a large bowl.
  • Whisk the hydrated gelatin into the strawberry sauce until dissolved. Chill the strawberry mixture for 30 minutes.
  • Add 1 cup of heavy cream to the strawberry mixture and whip on high with a handheld electric mixer for 5 minutes.
  • Divide the mixture into four serving cups or ramekins. Chill the mousse for 1 hour.
  • Melt the chocolate and ¼ cup of heavy cream in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir the ganache until the chocolate melts completely.
  • Divide the chocolate over the mousse in the serving cups. Chill for ½ hour, until the ganache is set. Garnish with whipped cream and strawberries, if desired, and serve.
