Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Cook cranberries and orange

In a saucepan, combine the cranberries, zest and juice of 1 orange, and 1/2 cup of sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.

2
Strain cranberry mixture

Press the cranberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding the solids. Let cool to room temperature.

3
Prepare gelatin

In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/4 cup of cold water. Let stand for 5 minutes.

4
Melt gelatin

Heat the gelatin mixture in the microwave for 10-15 seconds, or until melted. Stir into the cooled cranberry mixture.

5
Whip cream

In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

6
Prepare egg mixture

In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually stir in the cranberry mixture.

7
Fold in whipped cream

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cranberry and egg mixture until well combined.

8
Prepare orange segments

Peel and segment the remaining orange.

9
Chill the mousse

Divide the mousse among 6 serving glasses. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set.

10
Serve

Top each mousse with orange segments before serving.
