Description
A delightful recipe for White Chocolate Mousse Tartlets, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk
- Fresh berries for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, powdered sugar, softened butter, and salt. Mix until crumbly.
- Add the egg yolk and mix until the dough forms a ball. If the dough is too dry, add a teaspoon of cold water.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into circles and press them into a muffin tin to form tartlet shells.
- Prick the bottoms of the tartlet shells with a fork to prevent bubbling. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the melted white chocolate until fully combined.
- Add the milk to the mixture and stir until smooth. Spoon the mousse into the cooled tartlet shells.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set. Before serving, garnish with fresh berries if desired.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, substitute half of the white chocolate with dark chocolate.
- Add a tablespoon of lemon juice to the mousse for a citrusy twist.
