A delicious no bake pie recipe with a smooth and creamy strawberry lime mousse on a graham cracker crust.
Ingredients
For the crust:
1 c. graham cracker crumbs
2 T. sugar
6 T. butter, melted
1 t. salt
For the mousse:
12 Florida strawberries, stem removed and quartered
1 package unflavored gelatin
1¼ c. heavy cream
1 t. vanilla
½ c. powdered
1 t. salt
½ c. sour cream
zest from 1 lime
1 T. fresh lime juice
For decorating:
9 large Florida Strawberries
½ c. whipped cream
zest from 1 lime
Instructions
Put the graham crackers and sugar in a food processor and process until smooth. Add in the melted butter and salt and process until the mixture begins to stick together.
Pour the graham cracker mixture in a pie pan and press into the bottom and up the sides about 1½ inches. Refrigerate while making the mousse.
To make the mousse place the strawberries in a food processor. Blend until pureed. Add in the gelatin and pulse 3 times. Let sit for 5 minutes then pulse 10-15 times or until the gelatin is combined with the strawberries.
Meanwhile, put the heavy cream in a bowl and beat at high speed with a mixer until stiff peaks form. Add in the vanilla, powdered sugar, and salt and beat at high speed for 1 minute. Add in the sour cream and beat for 30 seconds.
Add the lime zest and lime juice to the strawberry mixture and mix with a spoon.
Add the strawberry mixture to the heavy cream mixture and beat for 2 minutes on medium speed or until well combined.
Pour the mousse into the chilled crust and refrigerate for 2 hours.
When ready to serve place dollops of whipped cream on top of the pie and place a strawberry, stem removed, on top of each dollop. Sprinkle with lime zest.
Slice into 8 pieces and serve.
