Mousses make perfect desserts for hot days. This pineapple mousse is no exception. The pineapple flavor is subtle, not overpowering at all, the mousse itself bubbles on the tongue and quickly disappears, leaving one to wonder if they have taken a bite at all. Freeze the mousse in individual ramekins and take it out a few minutes before serving.
