White Chocolate Mousse
A delicate beauty with a simple, pale appearance, yet rich in texture and flavor. Let’s introduce white chocolate mousse - a dessert as aesthetic as delicious!
Ingredients
- 100 gram White Chocolate
- ½ cup / 118 ml Heavy Cream
- ½ cup / 120 g Cream Cheese
- 1 tbsp / 8 g Powdered Sugar
- ½ tsp / 3 ml Pure Vanilla Essence
Instructions
Melt The White Chocolate
- Boil water in a saucepan (large enough to fit the mixing bowl), place the mixing bowl on top of the saucepan, and add ½ cup of white chocolate to it. (break into small pieces)
- Stir the chocolate occasionally until it’s fully melted.
- Alternatively, you can microwave the white chocolate in 30-second increments. Stir between each session, microwaving at half power until fully melted.
- Set aside to cool slightly.
Prepare The Cream Cheese Mixture
- Grab another medium mixing bowl and add 1/2 cup of cream cheese and 1 tbsp of powdered sugar to it.
- Beat the cream cheese with a hand or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Mix The Cream Cheese and Chocolate
- Now add 1/2 tsp of vanilla essence, and pour the white chocolate into the cream cheese mixture.
- And beat again at a low speed until it’s smooth and well combined.
Whip The Heavy Cream
- In another mixing bowl, pour 1/2 cup of heavy cream.
- Beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Do not overwhip, as it may turn grainy. Set the cream aside for later use.
Combine Heavy Cream and Chocolate Mixture
- Now, take some cream and mix it with the chocolate mixture. Then pour the chocolate mixture into the heavy cream.
- Now mix them at the lowest speed, or you can use a spatula to fold them until the mousse is well combined.
Chill, Serve, and Enjoy
- Taste the mousse to see if it needs more sweetness. Add 1 or 2 tbsp of powdered sugar if needed.
- Divide the mousse into serving cups using a spoon or piping bag and refrigerate for 1- 2 hours.
- Garnish the white chocolate mousse with more whipped cream or fresh berries, and enjoy your creamy delight!
