Strawberry Mousse
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries pureed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream chilled

Chocolate Glaze
  • 8 oz white chocolate finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Base
  • 1 cup chocolate cookie crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Method
 

  1. Mix cookie crumbs with melted butter and press into dome molds; chill.
  2. Bloom gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes.
  3. Heat half the strawberry puree and dissolve gelatin, then mix with remaining puree.
  4. Whip cream to stiff peaks and gently fold into strawberry mixture.
  5. Fill molds with mousse and freeze until solid.
  6. Heat cream and pour over chopped chocolate; add butter and stir until glossy.

Notes

For best results, glaze domes while frozen and allow them to thaw slightly before serving. Avoid overwhipping the cream to keep mousse light.
