Note

For best flavor and texture, allow the mousse to chill overnight in the refrigerator.

Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature before beating to achieve a smooth, lump-free consistency.

You can use fresh raspberries instead of frozen; you may need to adjust cooking time slightly as fresh berries release less liquid initially.
