Creamy White Chocolate Mousse Recipe

Ingredients:

• 200g white chocolate (chopped)
• 250ml heavy cream (chilled)
• 100g cream cheese (softened)
• 2 tbsp powdered sugar (optional)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Melt the White Chocolate:
   • In a heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave (heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each).
   • Let it cool to room temperature.
2. Whip the Cream:
   • In a large mixing bowl, beat the chilled heavy cream with a hand mixer until soft peaks form.
3. Combine Cream Cheese and Sugar:
   • In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
4. Mix Everything Together:
   • Once the white chocolate has cooled, fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
   • Gently fold in the whipped cream, being careful not to deflate it.
5. Chill:
   • Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to set.
6. Serve:
   • Garnish with white chocolate shavings, berries, or mint leaves, if desired.
