If you live in the deep south and have ever attended a covered dish supper or a church social, I’m sure you’ve encountered a lemon icebox pie. Similar to key lime pie, this dessert shares common ingredients with its cousin. There is nothing original about this recipe so I can’t claim creative rights. I’m sure every mother and grandmother in the south has a recipe similar to this one.

Thin almond layer, topped with creamy cherry mousse, covered in chocolate and crispy caramelized almonds.
This mini cherry mousse torte is delicious, light and beautiful.
I can’t say that this recipe is quick, but it’s easy, plus, you can do the work in parts – you could bake the almond layer a day in advance and cook the cherries a day ahead, too. The next day you can finish the mousse and assemble the cakes. To additionally ease your work, you can make one big cake instead of mini cakes, it’s up to you!
Bottom line is that these cakes deserve every minute spent in the kitchen, simply because they are heaven!
Enjoy, everyone!
