One word for this homemade vanilla mousse----YUM!!
I served it in a parfait glass...first with some crushed chocolate cookie crumbs in the bottom of the glass, then some banana and strawberry slices, then mousse, then more fruit, then top with mousse and top with a strawberry and then sprinkle some more chocolate cookie crumbs on top! YUM-O! It makes a really nice light dessert.
Enjoy!

Vanilla Mousse Recipe
This vanilla mousse recipe is creamy and delicious. This recipe does not use raw eggs like many other recipes do because consuming raw eggs can be dangerous. Frequently, eggs are found to be contaminated with Salmonella, a bacterium which causes food poisoning.
This dessert can be prepared ahead of time and kept overnight in the refrigerator. It is very easy to make and is the perfect dessert to enjoy after any meal. The cornstarch may form small clumps, so use a whisk to stir the mixture when cooking. You can also use a strainer to remove any clumps of cornstarch that form.
Ingredients
1/3 cup of sugar
Two tablespoons of cornstarch
One and a half cups of whole milk
One Tablespoon of pure vanilla extract
One cup of whipped cream
Directions
Combine the milk, cornstarch and sugar to a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about three minutes, stirring constantly to prevent sticking. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow to cool completely.
Pour the contents of the saucepan into a mixing bowl and add the vanilla extract. Stir in the vanilla extract. Fold in the whipped cream and refrigerate for at least one hour.
Top with whipped cream and your favorite fruit.
