Maracuja Recipe # Brazilian Passion Fruit Mousse (Maracuja)

This is Brazilian favorite (and an old family recipe), and takes no cooking at all. It's a little tart and tangy for those of you who don't like your desserts to be too sweet.

Ingredients

• 8 passion fruits
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups cream

Cooking Directions

1. Break passion fruits in half, and empty contents into a bowl. Use a little water to help rinse the juice out of the skins. Mix with hands to soften pulp. Strain through a sieve or cheesecloth. Stir in sugar and sweetened condensed milk.
2. In a chilled bowl, beat cream until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the cream into the passion fruit mixture, then quickly fold in remaining cream until no streaks remain. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
