Introducing the Christmas Mousse – a festive dessert perfect for your holiday table! Picture Santa's elves meets candy canes in a delightful layered treat. Simply whip up two mousses, one berrylicious (go wild with your favorite berries for a pink layer) and the other a cool green blend of pistachio and mint (or try cashews with mint for a twist).

Top it off with pineapple stars using a cookie cutter, toss in some extra berries, and garnish with classic mint leaves for a merry decoration. For the ultimate chill vibes, make these little delights about twelve hours ahead, adding the finishing touches just before serving.
