Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 4

Ingredients

8 ounces imported white chocolate (such as Lindt), chopped
1 cup plus 6 tablespoons chilled whipping cream
4 tablespoons light corn syrup
3 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
Fresh mint sprigs (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Stir white chocolate, 1/4 cup cream and 2 tablespoons syrup in heavy small saucepan over low heat until chocolate is melted and smooth. Pour into medium bowl; cool to barely lukewarm. Using electric mixer, beat 3/4 cup cream in medium bowl to medium-firm peaks. Fold cream into white chocolate mixture in 2 batches. Divide mousse among 4 custard cups. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead.)

    Step 2

    Bring remaining 6 tablespoons cream and remaining 2 tablespoons corn syrup to simmer in heavy small saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to low; add bittersweet chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Cool to room temperature. Spoon enough sauce over each mousse to cover completely. Garnish with mint, if desired.
