Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 pieces (standard size, approximately 1.84 oz each) Milky Way candy bars
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 large Egg whites
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 ounces (optional, for garnish) Dark chocolate
Instructions
Chop the Milky Way candy bars into small pieces and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine 1 cup of the heavy cream and the chopped Milky Way bars. Stir constantly until the candy bars melt and the mixture becomes smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, whip the remaining 1 cup of heavy cream with the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Set aside in the refrigerator.
In a separate clean, dry bowl, whisk the egg whites and salt to stiff peaks using a hand or stand mixer. Be cautious not to overwhip.
Once the melted Milky Way mixture has cooled, gently fold it into the whipped cream until evenly combined.
Next, fold the whipped egg whites into the Milky Way and cream mixture in three batches. Use a spatula and a gentle folding motion to preserve the airy texture.
Transfer the mousse into individual serving dishes or a single large dish. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
If desired, melt the dark chocolate and drizzle it over the frozen mousse just before serving for an extra touch of elegance.
