Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 6 ounces white chocolate, chopped
  • 1 ¼ cups heavy cream
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons powdered gelatin
  • 2 tablespoons cold water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Whipped cream and chocolate shavings for garnish

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let it sit for 5 minutes to soften.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat ½ cup of heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the chopped white chocolate. Let it sit for a minute to melt, then whisk until smooth and well combined.
  4. In a blender or food processor, puree the raspberries until smooth. Strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, whip the remaining ¾ cup of heavy cream with granulated sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  6. Microwave the gelatin mixture for 15 seconds, or until it becomes liquid.
  7. Pour the melted gelatin into the raspberry puree and stir well to combine.
  8. Fold the raspberry puree into the whipped cream mixture gently until fully incorporated.
  9. Divide the mousse mixture into individual serving glasses or bowls.
  10. Cover the glasses with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  11. Before serving, garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate shavings.
  12. Enjoy the indulgent and luscious Raspberry White Chocolate Mousse!
