Hello, everyone, today we’re going to learn how to make Flake ice cream using simple ingredients. So grab your pen and paper to jot down the ingredients, then follow the complete preparation method.

Creamy White Chocolate Mousse with Passion Fruit Recipe 

Indulge in this decadent yet simple Creamy White Chocolate Mousse with a tropical twist from passion fruit juice. The combination of the smooth sweetness from the white chocolate mousse and the zesty passion fruit creates a dessert that’s refreshing, rich, and absolutely irresistible. Perfect for impressing guests or treating yourself, this dessert takes just a few ingredients and minimal preparation time!

Ingredients:

• 1 can (395g) of sweetened condensed milk – The condensed milk provides the base for the mousse, adding rich sweetness and creaminess.
• 1 can (300ml) of heavy cream – Heavy cream is essential for creating the mousse’s light yet creamy texture, helping it achieve that airy, melt-in-your-mouth feel.
• 1 cup (240ml) of passion fruit juice (concentrated) – Passion fruit juice brings a tangy, citrusy contrast to the creamy base, brightening up the flavor profile and giving it a tropical flair.

Instructions:

Step 1: Blend the Ingredients

In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, and passion fruit juice. The condensed milk will add sweetness and a rich texture, while the heavy cream ensures a creamy, smooth consistency. The passion fruit juice provides a refreshing and zesty note that complements the creamy elements beautifully.

Step 2: Blend Until Smooth

Secure the lid on your blender and blend the ingredients together for about 2-3 minutes on medium speed. You want to blend until the mixture is smooth, silky, and fully combined. The heavy cream and condensed milk should integrate seamlessly with the tangy passion fruit juice, creating a creamy and slightly thickened consistency.

Step 3: Chill the Mousse

Once the mixture is well-blended, transfer it into serving dishes—small glass cups, ramekins, or even bowls work well. The mousse will need to chill and firm up in the refrigerator. Cover the dishes with plastic wrap or lids, and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours or until the mousse sets and reaches a firm, mousse-like consistency.

Step 4: Serve and Garnish

Before serving, feel free to garnish the mousse with extra passion fruit pulp, fresh fruit, or even a sprinkle of grated white chocolate for added texture and visual appeal. A few mint leaves can also add a fresh finishing touch.

Tips and Variations:

• Add a bit of white chocolate: If you want to make it extra indulgent, you can melt a small amount of white chocolate (about 50g) and add it to the mixture before blending. This will enhance the white chocolate flavor and give the mousse a richer texture.
• Make it dairy-free: To make a dairy-free version, substitute the condensed milk with a coconut-based sweetened condensed milk and use coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
• Tropical twist: For added texture, you can incorporate small pieces of fresh tropical fruits like mango or kiwi into the mousse before chilling.

Serving Suggestions:

This mousse pairs beautifully with a cup of coffee or a glass of chilled sparkling wine. It’s also a great option to serve at a tropical-themed party, dinner gathering, or as a refreshing summer dessert. The combination of creamy sweetness and tangy passion fruit is sure to please any palate!

With this easy Creamy White Chocolate Mousse recipe, you get a luscious, creamy dessert that’s balanced with the bright, fruity flavor of passion fruit. It’s a perfect treat for any occasion!
