White Chocolate Cherry Mousse | #CherrySweet ad

Did you know it is National Cherry month? So, in celebration I have literally whipped up a delicious white chocolate cherry mousse recipe to celebrate. There’s nothing quite like the combination of chocolate and cherry, and this super simple semi-homemade recipe is so delicious!

As a Wayfair homemaker I’m able to bring you this recipe for the Cherry Sweet event. Be sure to checkout a few of the other Cherry Sweet recipes.

Though it might be National Cherry month, finding fresh cherries for this recipe proved to be a challenge. Peak cherry season in the US is the summertime so this fresh ingredient recipe I had planned out in my head turned into another great semi-homemade dish. You could easily replace the jarred cherries with your favorite homemade cherry sauce recipe, though.

Ingredients

3/4 c. white chocolate chips
1 1/2 c. heavy cream divided
1 c. cherry sauce

Instructions

Place white chocolate and 1/4 c. heavy cream in a large microwave safe bowl.
Microwave on medium-high for 1 min. Whisk until smooth and no chunks remain. Continue heating for 10 second intervals until chocolate is fully incorporated. Let mixture cool to room temperature.
Place remaining heavy cream (1 1/4 c.) in large bowl. Attach whisk to electric mixer, whisk until soft peaks form.
Slowly temper the white chocolate mixture. Add a few spoonfuls of whipped cream to the white chocolate mixture, whisk by hand until smooth. Divide the remaining mixture in half and gently fold into the white chocolate mixture by hand until combined. Add the remaining half, fold until smooth.
Place a spoonful of cherry sauce in the bottom of 6 small glass jars. Gently spoon the white chocolate mousse into the jars covering the cherry sauce. Fill 2/3 full.
Place jars in the fridge, chill for at least 2 hours. Serve immediately.
