Instructions

Wash raspberries and combine them with granulated sugar in a mixing bowl. Lightly mash until chunky.
In a separate bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, whipping until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the raspberry mixture into the whipped cream until just combined.
If using gelatin, dissolve it in cold water and then fold it into the mousse mixture carefully.
Spoon mousse into serving cups and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set. Garnish with additional raspberries before serving.
