- Finely chop the white chocolate and place it in a heatproof bowl.
- Add 2 tablespoons milk or cream.
🔥 Step 2: Melt the Chocolate (Gently!)
Microwave method:
- Heat in 15-second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth.
Double-boiler method:
- Place the bowl over gently simmering water (don’t let it touch).
- Stir until just melted.
Important: White chocolate burns easily—stop as soon as it’s smooth.
Let it cool until just warm, not hot.
🥣 Step 3: Whip the Cream
- In a cold bowl, add the cold heavy cream.
- Add vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
- Whip until soft peaks form (light and billowy).
- Do not overwhip.
🍫 Step 4: Combine (Keep It Airy)
- Stir 2–3 spoonfuls of whipped cream into the melted chocolate to loosen it.
- Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the remaining whipped cream.
- Use slow, sweeping motions until just combined.
🧁 Step 5: Chill & Set
- Spoon the mousse into serving glasses or bowls.
- Cover lightly and refrigerate for 1–2 hours until set.
🍽️ Step 6: Serve
Serve chilled. Top with berries, chocolate shavings, or a biscuit crumble for contrast.
❄️ Storage
- Refrigerate up to 2 days, covered
- Do not freeze (texture will change)
