Meyer Lemon Mousse with Graham Cracker Crumble
8 ingredients
Serves 6.
openrecipes
Juicy and mildly tart, Meyer lemons have a deep yellow color and fragrant skins. Their juice and zest give this mousse a fresh, bright flavor, while ricotta cheese lends it substance and body. Buttered and sugared graham cracker crumbs layered into the mousse and sprinkled on top add sweetness and a crisp contrast in texture.
