Easy White Chocolate Mousse
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 12 ounces white chocolate chips or bar broken into chunks
- 3 tablespoons powdered (confectioner's) sugar
- Edible Glitter, optional (for sprinkling)
Instructions
- Heat the cream in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat until it's very hot but not yet boiling. Add the white chocolate and stir continually until melted. Remove from heat. Note: The mixture may look a little yellow but it will whiten as it cools. Pour the mixture into a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
- Once thoroughly chilled, beat the mixture with an electric mixer until it begins to stiffen. Add the powdered sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form. For a pretty presentation, pipe the mousse into the stemware or pastry cups. For a fancier look, sprinkle with edible glitter.
- Refrigerate the mousse until ready to serve. Can be made well in advance.
