But I'm making up for it today (or so I think) because I've been waiting to make this for uhm, forever and promised to make it for Eid. Admittedly, I had most of it all by my merry self but I did share because it really ended up being a big bowl overflowing with white chocolate mouse!
My hubby's cousin emailed me a recipe that she and her mom usually uses to make white, milk or dark chocolate mousse, sometimes layered on top of one another. Their recipe goes like this:
300 g chococlate (I obviously used white)
4 eggs seperated
100g butter
250ml cream whipped
1tsp sugar
Melt the chocolate, add the yolks and butter until smooth. Fold in whipped cream. Add sugar to the whites and beat until peaks form. Fold whites into the chocolate mixture.
That's as simple as can be. I wanted to add a spin to mine though, so before the mousse set I made some chocolate ganache (chocolate melted with fresh cream or nestlé cream) and dropped spoonfuls into it. Covered it and put it into the fridge. I whipped more fresh cream to cover the mousse and put halved strawberries on top of the finished bowl of overflowing yummy-ness.

Oooh, looks lovely :)) I've started eating healthy now, so cutting out desserts.

health, shmealth, ok, not really shmealth, but you know what I mean
Nielfa, I tried this out with my own variation. It was fab! Just a note does the mousse need to be firm? Cos mine was not...Was very Yummy tho
princess, when I tried it the consistency wasn't firm either... I used the exact measurements my husband's aunt gave me, so I guess it should be.
I agree it was yummy!
Hi Hanifa, just wanted to know whether this could be used as a topping on cupcakes - the white mousse?? Please lemme know, or alternatively if you have a recipe for white mousse for cupcakes?
