Ingredients
1/3 cup of sugar
Two tablespoons of cornstarch
One and a half cups of whole milk
Three tablespoons of lemon juice
One teaspoon lemon zest
½ teaspoon of pure vanilla extract
One cup of whipped cream
Directions
Combine sugar and cornstarch in a medium sauce pan. Slowly add the milk. Cook over medium heat until it comes to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for three minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
Pour the contents of the sauce pan into a large mixing bowl. Stir in the vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Add the whipped cream and fold in until completely combined.
The color is a little dull, so you may want to add a few drops of yellow food coloring to make the lemon mousse appear more yellow.
Refrigerate for an hour or more before serving. Top with whipped cream and lemon zest if desired.
