Ingredients
- 6.35 oz white chocolate
- 2.2 lbs ricotta
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 0.35 oz chopped pistachios
Preparation of the White Chocolate Mousse without Cream and Eggs
Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler and let it cool.
Place the ricotta in a bowl and add the sugar. Start mixing with a spoon to make the ricotta creamy.
Now, add the melted chocolate and mix everything with an electric mixer on low speed, until you obtain a fluffy mixture.
Let the mousse rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, covered with plastic wrap.
After the resting time, place the mousse in a piping bag and fill four cups. Decorate with chopped hazelnuts.
Keep the cups in the fridge until serving, perhaps accompanied by cookies, like cat’s tongues.
Storage of the White Chocolate and Ricotta Mousse
The chocolate mousse keeps in the refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap or in airtight containers, for a maximum of 2-3 days.
