Frozen Lemon Mousse

Frozen Lemon Mousse
 
 3 eggs
 3 egg yolks
 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
 1 cup granular sugar substitute
 1/2 stick unsalted butter
 2 tablespoon vodka
 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions:

In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and egg yolks; set aside. In a medium saucepan heat lemon juice, sugar substitute, butter and vodka. Gradually whisk lemon mixture into eggs. Return mixture to saucepan; cook 3 minutes, stirring constantly over medium heat until mixture thickens. Do not boil. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon peel and extract. Transfer to a large bowl. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap touching surface; chill at least one hour.
 
 With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream until peaks form. In two additions, fold whipped cream into lemon custard. Transfer to a 1-quart dessert dish. Freeze until solid, at least 2 hours. To serve, spoon into individual dessert plates and garnish with fresh berries, if desired.

 Comments: You won't taste the small amount of vodka in this sparkling citrus dessert. It's included to give the mousse a softer texture when frozen. It can be omitted.
