White Chocolate Mousse with Berry Coulis

by Andrea Tremblay-Legendre

A nicely sweet and creamy mousse combined with a delicious berry coulis, just the best way to finish a meal!

Yields 6 small jars

Mousse
2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla extract
Berry coulis
2 cups frozen berries
1/4 cup sugar
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp cornstarch

  1. Heat 1 cup of the heavy cream in a saucepan on low heat until small bubbles appear.
  2. Incorporate the white chocolate chips and mix with a whisk until the chocolate has melted.
  3. Add the cream and vanilla and mix well.
  4. Let cool down at room temperature for 20 minutes. Cover your bowl and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
  5. Once the mousse cooling time is over, it's time to make the berry coulis.
  6. Place the berries, lemon juice and sugar in a saucepan and cook on medium heat. Mash the fruits completely.
  7. Once it simmers, add the cornstarch and mix well. Cook for an extra 5 minutes and take off heat.
  8. Pass through a sieve and discard the seeds. Let cool down in a small bowl. Set aside.
  9. Take the mousse out of the fridge and beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. It will take just 1-2 minutes, be careful to not overwhip it.
  10. Place the coulis at the bottom of the 6 small jars. Place your mousse in a piping bag with a star tip and pipe the mousse on top of the coulis.
