What To Avoid While Making this Recipe?

- Avoid using underripe bananas, as they will not provide enough sweetness for the mousse.

- Avoid skipping the refrigeration step, as the mousse needs time to set and develop its flavor.
- Avoid overmixing the mousse, as it can deflate the airy texture and result in a dense dessert.
