Limoncello Raspberry Mascarpone Mousse

A verrine is a confection, originally from paris, made by artfully layering ingredients in a small glass, and may be either savory or sweet. Very chic and trendy--this one is served in a shot-glass! Use the larger 2.5 to 3 ounce shotglasses, or use ramekins. Makes about 8 verrines.

Steps

Rinse and drain raspberries , gently pat dry and set aside.
In a small bowl , stir together the lemon zest and the lemon curd.
Stir in the limoncello liqueur , whisking briskly until combined.
In a separate bowl , whip the cream until soft peaks form.
Beat in the lemon extract.
Fold in the mascarpone and stir gently.
Combine well.
In 8 large shot-glasses or ramekins , evenly and attractively layer the lemon curd mixture and the mascarpone mousse.
Top with the fresh berries , and garnish with a mint leaf or sprig of lemon verbena.
Chill until serving time.
