Meyer Lemon Mousse in Wonton Cups

Don't be intimidated by the photo of today's dessert, because these little dessert cups are so easy to make! As long as you have lemon curd and wonton wrappers, the preparation will take no time.

I've made a lot of jars of Meyer lemon curd over the last few days and I used one of them to create this dessert. I folded in a bit of sweetened whipped cream so the mousse was light and airy and used it to fill the shaped and baked wonton cups. A topping of my citron confit and a dash of powdered sugar made the cutest garnish that also acted as a reminder of the flavors of this elegant dessert.

Meyer Lemon Mousse Recipe

Judging from what we have left on our Meyer lemon tree, the citrus season is reaching its end. Just as I did with our clémentines earlier this winter, I made a mousse using the last handful of Meyer lemons.

No need to look for cute cups to serve the mousse in; the Meyer lemon rind does the job splendidly.
