Categories     dessert

Time 2h50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces good-quality white chocolate, chopped
4 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons sugar
8 ounces mascarpone cheese
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
White chocolate curls, for garnish

Steps:

  • Line 8 muffin cups with paper liners. Melt the white chocolate in top of double boiler over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Spoon 1 tablespoon melted chocolate into each paper liner. Using a pastry brush, coat the chocolate evenly over the bottom and up the sides of the liners. Freeze until the chocolate is firm, about 30 minutes. Remelt the white chocolate in the bowl. Spoon 1 tablespoon into each cup and brush over the bottom and up the sides, forming a second coat. Freeze until completely set, about 1 hour.
  • Melt the bittersweet chocolate in top of a clean double boiler over simmering water, stirring until smooth. At this point, set aside to cool completely.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat the cream and sugar in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Set the whipped cream aside.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat the mascarpone cheese, melted bittersweet chocolate, orange peel, and vanilla in a large bowl just until smooth and glossy, about 30 seconds (do not overmix). Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in 2 batches. Transfer the mousse to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe the mousse into the white chocolate cups. Sprinkle the white chocolate curls over the mousse and serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate overnight, and then let stand at room temperature 1 hour before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your mousse. Use the best chocolate you can find, as well as fresh mascarpone cheese and bananas.
  • Make sure your ingredients are cold. This will help the mousse to set properly. If your mascarpone cheese or bananas are warm, chill them in the refrigerator before using.
  • Whip the cream until it is stiff peaks. This will give the mousse a light and fluffy texture. If you over-whip the cream, it will become grainy and the mousse will be less smooth.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture gently. Over-mixing will deflate the mousse and make it less airy.
  • Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow it to set properly and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

This chocolate mascarpone mousse with bananas is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is light and fluffy, with a rich chocolate flavor and a hint of banana. The mousse can be made in advance and chilled for up to 3 days, making it a great option for busy hosts. Serve the mousse with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream for a truly decadent treat.
