Ingredients
- 7 oz walnuts (shelled)

- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- as needed cookies (for decoration)
Steps
Start by toasting the walnuts. You can do this in a non-stick pan over medium heat, stirring continuously until the walnuts release their aroma and become slightly golden. Make sure not to burn them. Let them cool completely.
Place the toasted walnuts in a food processor and grind them into a fine powder. Set aside a handful of whole walnuts for garnish, if desired.
In a large bowl, mix mascarpone, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
In another bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff. Ensure the cream and beaters are well chilled before starting.
Add the walnut powder to the mascarpone mixture and gently mix until evenly incorporated.
Now, gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone and walnut mixture. Use gentle movements from bottom to top to keep the mousse light.
Spoon the walnut mousse into individual serving cups or dessert glasses.
If you wish, garnish each serving with some whole toasted walnuts and a sprinkle of additional walnut powder or crumbled cookies.
Cover the cups or glasses with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours or until the mousse has set.
Before serving, let the walnut mousse sit at room temperature for a few minutes so it reaches the ideal temperature for enjoyment.
