A mousse can be sweet or savory, like this lighter-than-air side. You can make it ahead of time and reheat in the microwave at 50 percent power for a minute or two. Here we use sweet potatoes and bake them in 6-ounce soufflé cups. You can also use a gratin or casserole dish and bake for about 30 minutes.
