Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup White chocolate chips
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream (divided)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 0.33 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.25 cup White chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and fully melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand. Divide the mixture among serving glasses and press down lightly to form a crust at the bottom. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and beat until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whip 1 1/2 cups of the heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture gently until smooth and no streaks remain.
Fold the melted and slightly cooled white chocolate into the cream cheese mixture until evenly combined.
In a clean mixing bowl, whip the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold this into the mousse mixture for extra lightness.
Spoon or pipe the cheesecake mousse into the prepared serving glasses on top of the graham cracker crust.
Chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set before serving.
Optional: Garnish with white chocolate shavings and fresh berries before serving. Enjoy!
