Indulge in the decadent delight of a Rich White Chocolate Mousse Tart that combines silky white chocolate mousse with a buttery pastry crust for a dessert that is both elegant and delicious.

Ingredients

Scale

For the white chocolate mousse:

  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 80 grams white chocolate

For the pastry:

  • 350 grams all-purpose flour
  • 125 grams unsalted butter
  • 125 grams sugar
  • 2 eggs plus 1 egg yolk
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the White Chocolate Mousse Base
    Begin by beating the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl until the mixture becomes pale and smooth. Meanwhile, heat ¼ cup of cream in a double boiler until warm. Pour the heated cream over the egg yolk mixture, stir well, return to heat and cook until thickened. Remove from heat, pour over white chocolate, stir until melted, and let cool.
  2. Step 2: Whip the Cream and Combine
    In a separate bowl, beat the remaining cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture until fully combined. Refrigerate the mousse until ready to use.
  3. Step 3: Preheat and Prepare Pastry Dough
    Preheat oven to 190ºC. In a food processor, combine flour, salt, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon. Add cold butter squares, pulse to breadcrumb consistency. Mix in sugar and eggs until dough forms.
  4. Step 4: Refrigerate and Roll Out Pastry
    Chill dough for 1 hour. Roll out and cut to fit tartlet tins.
  5. Step 5: Blind Bake the Pastry
    Line pastry with baking paper and bake beans, blind bake for 10 mins, remove paper and weights, bake for additional 5 mins until golden. Cool on racks.
  6. Step 6: Assemble and Serve the Tartlets
    Spoon mousse into tartlet cases, decorate with fruit and cinnamon-sugar. Alternatively, spoon mousse into glasses and top with fruit or chocolate shards.
