Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams white chocolate
- 240 ml heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 100 grams fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
- 20 grams white chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Chop the white chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat 120 ml of heavy cream over medium heat until it starts to simmer (but do not let it boil).
Pour the hot cream over the chopped white chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to melt the chocolate.
Stir the mixture gently with a spatula until smooth and combined. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
In a separate mixing bowl, add the remaining 120 ml of heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
Using an electric hand mixer or whisk, whip the cream until soft peaks form.
Once the white chocolate mixture has cooled, gently fold it into the whipped cream in batches using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Divide the mousse into serving glasses or bowls and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
Before serving, garnish with fresh berries and white chocolate shavings if desired.
