I have been a fan of chocolate mousse for as long as I can remember. I especially like white chocolate mousse with berries, so I made this the other night as a surprise for my husband. It’s relish!
You’ll need:
1/2 cup whole milk
4 large egg yolks
3 tablespoons sugar
8 ounces good-quality white chocolate (such as Lindt or Baker’s), chopped
1 cup chilled whipping cream
2 cups fresh blackberries
Rolled wafer cookies
Whisk milk, yolks and 2 tablespoons sugar in small metal bowl to blend. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water. Whisk constantly until mixture thickens and thermometer registers 160°F, about 4 minutes. Remove from over water.
Add white chocolate; whisk until melted and smooth.
Refrigerate mixture until cool but not set, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour.
Beat cream in large bowl to stiff peaks.
Fold in white chocolate mixture.
Cover and refrigerate until mousse is softly set, about 3 hours.
Top mousse with berries. Serve with cookies, if desired.
