A smooth sweet white chocolate mousse topped with sweet and sour lime-marinated strawberries and a hidden Nutella “kinder egg”. So far not once has there been any leftovers. All the bowl has been “licked” clean no matter the menu eaten earlier.
Very easy to make, there are only a few steps, and some of those steps involve having to leave the components to sit/chill, which means that you can also sit and chill. The recipe makes four servings, so if you’re making it for two you could either halve it or enjoy it for two days, as we do.
This mousse is a little bit sinful, but soooo yummy! Not too sweet with a delightful lime flavor and fresh strawberries. Just perfect! I think you have earned yourself a little treat.
The strawberries give off their own creamy juice after you add the honey (you can use normal white sugar as well), and a few stirs helps to release this and dissolve the sugar.

- Zest the lime, squeeze out the juice. Add the zest and the juice to a bowl. Mix lime juice and zest with honey. Cut the strawberries into slices and place them in the marinade. Stir the mix gently and let it rest for at least 0,5 hour. 1-2 hours is even better.
- Spread the marinated strawberries over the chocolate mousse. Garnish with a chocolate wafer.Enjoy! The tasty Cuisine that smiles back.
