Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 ounces (113 grams) white chocolate
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) heavy cream
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) condensed milk
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Garnish:
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) fresh berries
- 1 sprig mint
Instructions
- Prepare a microwave-safe bowl and melt white chocolate using 15-second intervals, stirring between each cycle until smooth and completely liquefied.
- Select a large mixing bowl and whip heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft, billowy peaks develop, approximately 3-4 minutes.
- Gently fold condensed milk into the whipped cream, maintaining a light and airy texture without deflating the cream’s volume.
- Carefully integrate melted white chocolate into the cream mixture, stirring to achieve a uniform, silky consistency.
- Incorporate vanilla extract and salt, blending thoroughly to distribute flavors evenly throughout the dessert.
- Elegantly transfer the mixture into individual serving glasses or a decorative dish, creating artistic swirls using a spatula.
- Chill in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours, allowing the dessert to set and develop a luxurious, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
- Prior to serving, sprinkle powdered sugar and artfully arrange fresh berries on top of the chilled dessert.
- Optionally, enhance presentation with a delicate mint sprig for an extra touch of herbal sophistication.
- Serve immediately while chilled, savoring this quick and decadent treat that promises to tantalize the taste buds.
Notes
- Control chocolate melting by using low power settings to prevent burning and ensure smooth texture.
- Chill mixing bowl and whisk beforehand for faster, more stable whipped cream formation.
- Substitute white chocolate with dark or milk chocolate for different flavor variations.
- Use dairy-free alternatives like coconut cream and vegan white chocolate for lactose-intolerant or vegan diets.
