  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

This White Chocolate Mousse is a luxurious yet simple dessert made with just two ingredients: white chocolate and heavy whipping cream. Its creamy, airy texture makes it perfect for any occasion, and it can be easily customized with your favorite toppings. Enjoy this delightful treat that melts in your mouth!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup of white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup of heavy whipping cream

Instructions

  1. Melt the White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth (about 1-2 minutes). Avoid overheating to prevent graininess.
  2. Cool the Chocolate: Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly at room temperature until warm but not hot.
  3. Chill Your Equipment: Chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 10-15 minutes for optimal whipping results.
  4. Whip the Cream: Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl. Beat on medium speed until soft peaks form (about 2-3 minutes). Aim for fluffy cream without over-whipping.
  5. Check the Consistency: Soft peaks should gently fold over when the beaters are lifted. If they stand straight up, you’ve over-whipped.
  6. Fold the Chocolate into the Cream: Add a small amount of whipped cream to the melted chocolate to lighten it.
  7. Gently Fold: Incorporate about a third of the whipped cream into the chocolate using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
  8. Add the Remaining Cream: Fold in the remaining whipped cream in two additions, ensuring the mixture is light and fluffy with no visible streaks.
  9. Transfer to Serving Dishes: Spoon the mousse into individual cups or a large serving dish. Smooth the tops for a nice presentation.
  10. Chill in the Refrigerator: Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for enhanced flavor and texture.
  11. Prepare Toppings (Optional): While chilling, prepare toppings like fresh berries, shaved chocolate, or caramel sauce.
  12. Serve and Enjoy: Once set, remove from the refrigerator, add toppings, and enjoy the light, airy mousse that melts in your mouth.

Notes

  • Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
  • Consider adding vanilla extract, almond extract, or a splash of liqueur for a unique twist.
