Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Oreo cookies (or chocolate wafer cookies)
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 12 ounces White chocolate chips
- 1 cup Heavy cream (for white chocolate mixture)
- 1 teaspoon Powdered gelatin
- 2 tablespoons Cold water (for gelatin blooming)
- 2 cups Heavy cream (for whipping)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup White chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a food processor, blend the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Alternatively, crush them in a resealable bag with a rolling pin.
Melt the butter and mix it with the cookie crumbs until evenly combined.
Press the cookie mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Bake the crust in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove and let it cool completely.
In a small bowl, sprinkle the powdered gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, heat 1 cup of heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and stir in the white chocolate chips until fully melted and smooth.
Place the bloomed gelatin in the microwave and heat it for 10 seconds to dissolve. Stir the melted gelatin into the white chocolate mixture until completely combined. Set this aside to cool to room temperature.
In a large bowl, whip 2 cups of heavy cream with the vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled white chocolate mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
Pour the mousse over the cooled cookie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Smooth the surface.
Refrigerate the torte for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Before serving, release the springform pan and transfer the torte to a serving plate. Optionally, garnish the top with white chocolate shavings.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your creamy and indulgent White Chocolate Mousse Torte!
