White Chocolate Ricotta Mousse In Minutes

Sure, the title sounds very cool and so was the mousse. It all began this morning when I was pondering as to what I can make for dessert. I had a bunch of constraints: I was requested to prepare something pudding/mousse type of dessert. I was thinking of the recipe which Rachel Ray made some years ago for valentines day. The recipe required eggs to make it all smooth and fluffy. I realized I was out of eggs, semi sweet chocolate and whipped cream but had some ricotta cheese, and white chocolate. I decided to use them and came up with the recipe.



Gadgets:

Food processor
Bowl
Saucepan
Spatula
Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients:

White chocolate chips - 1/2 cup
Ricotta cheese - 15 oz
Vanilla essence - 1 tbsp
Butter - 1 tbsp
Whipped Cream - 1/2 cup ( makes it extra special, but will be fine otherwise)

Preparation:

1. Melt the white chocolate with 1 tbsp butter.

2. Mix in the ricotta cheese and vanilla essence and transfer into the food processor.

3. Blend until smooth and transfer into serving cups.

P.S: I think 1/4th cup or 3 tbsp is the best serving size for the mousse. Also folding in 1/2 cup whipped cream would make it perfect.

  4. Oooh ... that really looks mouthwatering! I can easily try this, since my family doesn't consume egg products. Thanks for sharing. I don't get ricotta here where I currently stay. I wondered if cottage cheese could be used as a substitute, since I make that regularly at home? Or perhaps that would ruin the texture?

  5. Very nice and quick recipe. I might make it for a get together. Will let you know how it turns out. BTW, about bread machine, do you try to bake in the bread machine? I have seen that if you make the dough in the bread machine and then bake in the oven, it is very nice compared to the bread baked in the bread machine. Probably due to this getting baked for long at lower temperature compared to the oven. Feel free to send me an email if you need some bread machine recipe.
