Time 15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 ounces crumbled blue cheese
1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese
kosher salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper to taste
⅓ cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Puree blue cheese and cream cheese together in a food processor until completely smooth; transfer to a bowl and season with kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Beat heavy cream in a glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Fold whipped cream into the blue cheese mixture, stirring until the mixture is creamy with no lumps.
  • Transfer mixture to a pastry bag with a round tip for piping.

Yield 2 pounds

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb. 4 oz. Blue Cheese
12 oz Cream Cheese
4 fl. oz. Heavy Cream
Salt & Black Pepper TT

Steps:

  • Puree cheeses until very smooth, season with S&P. Whip cream to soft peaks. Gently fold cream into the cheese mixture. Fold until lumps are removed. Serve chilled.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the mousse will taste. Use full-fat cream cheese, fresh cream, and a good quality blue cheese.
  • Make sure the cream cheese and cream are cold: This will help the mousse to set properly.
  • Don't over-beat the mousse: Over-beating can cause the mousse to become grainy. Beat the mousse just until it is smooth and creamy.
  • Chill the mousse for at least 2 hours before serving: This will allow the mousse to set properly and develop its flavor.
  • Garnish the mousse with fresh herbs or berries: This will add a pop of color and flavor to the mousse.

Conclusion:

Blue cheese mousse is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or dessert. It's perfect for parties or special occasions.
