Instructions
Step 1
Puree the apricots (drain first if using canned). If using fresh apricots, you may want to cook the apricots in a little water on the stove to soften them a bit before pureeing(optional).
Step 2
Put two cups of the pureed apricots into a mixing bowl.
Step 3
With mixer, beat the sugar and True Lemon juice into the puree until sugar dissolves.
Step 4
Whip the egg whites until mixture is satiny smooth and stiff peaks begin to form. Add almond extract.
Step 5
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the apricot mixture.
Step 6
Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
Step 7
Freezing will take around four hours. Two or three times during the freezing, take out and whip to break up the ice crystals.
Step 8
Let the mousse soften for half an hour in the fridge before serving.
Step 9
