6 oz white chocolate chopped 1 cup heavy whipping cream cold 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 1 large egg white optional, for extra fluffiness 1 tbsp powdered sugar optional, for added sweetness
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
If using, in a separate bowl, whisk the egg white with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the melted white chocolate into the whipped cream until fully combined.
If using egg white, carefully fold it into the mousse for a lighter texture.
Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
Serving Tip: Garnish with white chocolate shavings, berries, or a drizzle of raspberry sauce.
Storage: Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Serve chilled.
Flavor Variation: Add a splash of almond or orange extract for a unique twist.
