Two Ingredient White Chocolate Mousse Recipe
When I whipped up my Two-Ingredient Chocolate Mousse, I knew a white chocolate twist was next on deck—and yeah, still just two ingredients. The result? Light, airy, and smooth as silk, making you want to savor every bite. It’s fancy enough to eat all proper, but who am I kidding? I dove right in! Got a thing for mousse? I’ve also got a killer Monkey Butter you’ll wanna try!
Stuff You’ll Need & Swaps
White Chocolate Chips: You’ve got options when it comes to white chocolate! Made with just cocoa butter and no cocoa solids, that’s why it’s so light in color—but trust, it brings the sweetness every dessert needs
Heavy Whipping Cream: This thick, rich cream (36-40% fat) is a must for the recipe—sorry, milk just won’t cut it here!
Serving Up Your White Chocolate Mousse Recipe
Scoop the mousse into four serving glasses. I chose lowball glasses, but ramekins, espresso cups, martini glasses, or any cute little bowls will do just fine. Pop the mousse in the fridge to chill for at least an hour, or even overnight, before serving.
You serve it topped with whipped cream or whatever goodie you love! For the fancy swirl, you throw the whipped cream in a piping bag fitted with a 1M tip and pipe it on. I even made some white chocolate curls to give my mousse that extra wow factor!
How to Store White Chocolate Mousse Recipe
Store homemade mousse in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Store the mousse in an air-tight container to make sure it does not become dry or take any yucky smells from its container. And don’t forget to slap a date on the container!
FAQ’s
1. May I use other types of chocolate for this mousse?
Of course! As long as this recipe specifies white chocolate, you may swap in milk or dark chocolate. Just be mindful that different chocolates have different levels of sweetness, so you may want to adjust the quantities in proportion.
2. How long does the mousse need to chill?
For the best texture, chill your white chocolate mousse for at least 1 hour, although overnight will be even better! That way, you will be able to appreciate the flavor melding of the flavors and a more firmer consistency.
3. Can I make this mousse dairy-free?
Yes! If you wish to make it a dairy-free version, just substitute coconut cream or other plant-based heavy cream options for making a delicious, dairy-free version of the mousse.
4. What should I put on top of my white chocolate mousse?
There’s so many different ways you could top a white chocolate mousse. Just for some examples, a mousse might be dusted with sugar, given a crown of whipped cream and chocolate curls, placed under a shroud of fresh berries or a sheet of crushed nuts. Choose a topping combination and run wild!
5. How should I refrigerate my leftover mousse?
Store any mousse leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Make sure to cover it properly so it does not dry out and picks up other fridge smells. Don’t forget to date the container when you make it!

1 ½ cups cold heavy cream, divided

- Fold in half the whipped cream gently into the white chocolate mixture using a large spatula. Next, fold in the other half of the whipped cream gently.
- Put mousse into four ramekins or cocktail glasses. Chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour or up to overnight until the mousse is firm to the touch. Top with extra whipped cream or Cool Whip, and shave some white chocolate to finish.
