---|---|
1 | Dissolve Jelly Powder: Start by dissolving the orange-flavored jelly powder in boiling water. Stir well until the powder is completely dissolved. |
2 | Add Sugar: Once the jelly powder is dissolved, add the white sugar to the mixture. Stir continuously until the sugar is fully incorporated. If needed, you can gently heat the mixture to help dissolve any sugar granules. |
3 | Chill the Mixture: Allow the jelly mixture to cool and chill in the refrigerator until it reaches the consistency of egg whites. This step ensures that the mousse sets properly. |
4 | Whip the Evaporated Milk: In a deep bowl, pour the evaporated milk and beat it until it forms a thick foam. This will give the mousse its light and airy texture. |
5 | Combine Ingredients: Gradually fold the whipped evaporated milk into the chilled jelly mixture. Mix thoroughly until well combined. |
6 | Refrigerate: Pour the mousse mixture into a glass bowl and refrigerate it until it sets completely. This usually takes about 2-3 hours. |
7 | Decorate and Serve: Just before serving, garnish the orange mousse with fresh orange segments and a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy the refreshing flavors of this delightful dessert! |
