WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• In a large glass bowl, place the chopped white chocolate and set aside.
• Add the egg yolks and sugar to a small bowl and whisk until pale in color.
• In a saucepan, over low heat, bring 1/4 cup of the cream to a simmer, and slowly add the cream into the yolk and sugar mixture to temper. Pour the creamy mixture back into pan and stir with a wooden spoon until it coats the back of it.
• Pour hot mix into a fine mesh sieve placed directly over bowl with the chopped chocolate. Stir until completely smooth.
• In another bowl, whip remaining 1 cup of the cream to almost stiff peaks. Fold half the whipped cream into the white chocolate mix to lighten and then fold in the remaining whipped cream.
• Spoon the white chocolate mousse into 4 serving cups and refrigerate until set, approximately 1 hour.
• Garnish each serving with 3 blackberries and a sprig of mint, if using.

WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE

Steps:

• Make the white chocolate mousse first, so it has time to chill. Or better yet, make this mousse in advance! It can be made 1-2 days ahead of time.
• Add the white chocolate chips and 1/2 cup heavy cream in a medium-sized, heat-proof bowl. Heat for 60-75 second in the microwave, then let the mixture sit for a minute. Stir until combined with a rubber spatula. The white chocolate should be completely melted, and the mixture should be smooth. If you don't have a microwave, you can also use a double boiler. Set aside.
• Add 1 cup of heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of fine salt in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fit with a whisk attachment.
• Mix on medium-high speed until the whipped cream starts to gather in the whisk attachment and you can see texture around the edge of the bowl. The whipped cream should be thick and able to keep its shape. This usually takes about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes in my stand mixer.
• Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the white chocolate cream mixture using a rubber spatula. Use the spatula to swoop around the sides of the bowl and pull through the center like I show in the video of this recipe. Fold in the remaining whipped cream. Be careful not to over-mix the mousse, or it will become deflated and lose its structure.
• Cover the mousse with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Line and grease four, 7-inch pans or three, 8-inch cake pans with parchment rounds.
• Add the unsalted butter and granulated sugar into the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix together on a high speed with a whisk attachment for a few minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed with a rubber spatula. The mixture should become lighter in color as air is whipped into it.
• Add in the room temperature egg whites and mix at a medium speed until they're incorporated.
• Whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt into a separate bowl.
• Add half of the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and mix on a low speed until incorporated.
• Add the sour cream, oil, and vanilla extract and mix at a low speed until combined. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
• Mix in the remaining dry ingredients on a low speed.
• Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. I like to use a digital kitchen scale to weigh my pans to make sure my layers bake up to be the same height.
• Bake for 37-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs. Rotate the pans halfway through to help them bake evenly.
• Allow the pans to cool for 10 minutes, then run an offset spatula around the perimeter of the pan to separate the cake from the pan.
• Place the cake layers into the freezer for 45 minutes to accelerate the cooling process. Once the layers are fully cooled, carefully flip the pans and remove the layers from the pans.
• Use a serrated knife to level the tops and trim the sides to remove any caramelization.
• While the cake layers bake and cool, make the white chocolate buttercream frosting.
• Beat the butter on a low speed for 30 seconds with a paddle or whisk attachment until smooth.
• Add in the vanilla extract and salt and beat on a low speed.
• Slowly add in the powdered sugar and mix on a low speed. Add in the heavy cream halfway through to make the frosting easier to mix.
• Mix in the melted and cooled white chocolate on a low speed and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
• Continue to mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the desired consistency is reached.
• If the frosting is too thick, add in additional cream (1 teaspoon at a time). If the frosting is too thin, add in more powdered sugar (quarter of a cup at a time).
• Stir by hand with a rubber spatula to make the frosting extra smooth, then place the frosting in a large piping bag. Seal the top of the bag with a rubber band or clip and cut an opening that's about 3/4 inch wide at the base of the bag. Set aside.
• Stack and frost the cake layers on a greaseproof cake board using a dab of frosting to help stick the first cake layer to the board.
• Pipe a ring of buttercream around the perimeter of each cake layer, then spread an even layer of white chocolate mousse inside the ring. Use about 1/3 of the mousse between each layer if you have 4 cake layers. If you have 3 cake layers, use 1/2 of the mousse between each layer.
• Repeat with remaining cake layers. Once all the cake layers are stacked, spread a thin coat of frosting around the cake to fully cover the cake layers. If your layers are sliding around, insert a chopstick or wooden dowel into the center of the cake to make it more stable.
• Smooth using a bench scraper, then chill the cake in the fridge (30 minutes) or freezer (10 minutes) until the frosting is firm to the touch.
• Add a second, thicker layer of white chocolate frosting to the cake and smooth using an icing comb.
• Decorate as desired! I chose to add some buttercream swirls piped with a Wilton 1M frosting tip along with a pretty sprinkle blend.

WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks with a hand mixer until frothy and airy, then mix in the sugar slowly. Beat until lemon-colored and fluffy.
• Heat the cream in a pot over medium heat until steaming but not boiling, then slowly mix in half of the cream with the eggs - being sure to not cook the eggs by pouring too much cream inside before it's mixed.
• Pour the warm creamy egg mixture into the pot with the rest of the cream and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon without dripping off too much.
• Mix in the white chocolate until smooth, then transfer the mix to a bowl and press cling film into the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Chill completely.
• Once the white chocolate mixture is set, beat the cold cream in a large bowl until stiff peaks. Be careful not to overmix, it's safer to undermix than the over mix.
• Carefully fold in the white chocolate mixture into the cream, a little at a time, until folded in completely. Set aside for later use.

RASPBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE

Steps:

• Make the white chocolate mousse:
• In a bowl whisk together well the yolks, the sugar, and a pinch of salt, add the cornstarch, sifted, and whisk the mixture until it is just combined. Add the milk, scalded, in a stream, whisking, transfer the mixture to a heavy saucepan, and boil it, whisking, for 1 minute, or until it is very thick and smooth. Strain the pastry cream through a fine sieve into a bowl, stir in vanilla and the butter, and chill the pastry cream, its surface covered with plastic wrap, until it is cooled completely. In a metal bowl set over barely simmering water melt the white chocolate, stirring occasionally, and let it cool to lukewarm. In a large bowl whisk together the white chocolate and 1 cup of the pastry cream, reserving the remaining pastry cream for the raspberry mousse, until the mixture is combined well. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the heavy cream until it holds soft peaks, whisk one fourth of it into the white chocolate mixture, and fold in the remaining whipped cream gently but thoroughly.
• Line the sides of an oiled 9 1/2-inch springform pan as smoothly as possible with pieces of plastic wrap (the plastic wrap prevents the filling from discoloring and makes unmolding the cake easier), letting the excess hang over the side, and put an 8-inch cardboard round in the bottom of the pan. Invert the top layer of the génoise onto the round, brush the cake with some of the framboise, and spread it evenly with half the white chocolate mousse (about 2 cups). Invert the middle layer of the génoise onto the mousse, brush it with some of the remaining framboise, and chill the cake and the remaining white chocolate mousse while preparing the raspberry mousse.
• Make the raspberry mousse:
• In a blender or food processor purée the raspberries with the reserved syrup and strain the purée through a fine sieve set over a metal bowl, pressing hard on the solids. In a small saucepan sprinkle the gelatin over the framboise and let it soften for 1 minute. Heat the mixture over moderately low heat, stirring, until the gelatin is dissolved and whisk it into the purée. Whisk the reserved pastry cream into the raspberry mixture, whisking until it is smooth, set the bowl in a larger bowl of ice and cold water, and whisk the mixture until it is the consistency of raw egg white. Remove the bowl from the ice water and in a bowl with an electric mixer beat the heavy cream until it holds soft peaks. Whisk one fourth of the whipped cream into the raspberry mixture and fold in the remaining whipped cream gently but thoroughly.
• Spread about 1 cup of the raspberry mousse evenly over the middle layer of génoise in the pan, arrange some of the raspberries neatly around the edge of the pan, and continue to arrange the raspberries in concentric circles until the surface of the mousse is covered. Spread the remaining raspberry mousse over the raspberries, invert the third layer of génoise onto the mouse, and brush it with the remaining framboise. Spread the remaining white chocolate mousse over the génoise (the pan will be completely full) and chill the cake, its surface covered with a sheet of wax paper, for at least 6 hours or overnight. Remove the side of the pan, peel the plastic wrap carefully from the side of the cake, and transfer the cake with a spatula to a serving plate.
• Garnish the cake:
• Arrange some of the raspberries around the top edge of the cake, mound the white chocolate curls in the center, and garnish the bottom edge of the cake with the remaining raspberries and the mint sprigs.
• Make the white chocolate génoise:
• Line the bottom of a greased 8 1/2-inch springform pan with wax paper, grease the paper, and dust the pan with flour, knocking out the excess. In a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water melt the white chocolate with the butter, the vanilla, and 3 tablespoons water, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Remove the bowl from the heat and let the mixture cool. Into a bowl sift together the flour and the salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat the eggs with the sugar on high speed for 5 minutes, or until the mixture is triple in volume and forms a ribbon when the beaters are lifted. Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture until the batter is just combined and fold in the white chocolate mixture gently but thoroughly. Pour the batter into the pan, smoothing the top, and bake the cake in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 25 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Transfer the cake to a rack, run a sharp knife around the edge, and remove the side of the pan. Invert the cake onto another rack and remove the wax paper. Reinvert the cake onto the rack and let it cool completely.
