Ingredients
  

For the Mousse:

  • 4 oz white chocolate bar chopped
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp sugar optional

For the Raspberry Layer:

  • 2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Garnish:

  • Fresh raspberries
  • Chocolate shavings

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Raspberry Layer: In a saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly. Let it cool and then strain to remove seeds, if desired.
  • Make the White Chocolate Mousse: Melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl set in the microwave for about 60 seconds, stirring occasionally. Once melted let it cool slightly.
  • In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and sugar until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold in the melted white chocolate into the whipped cream until well combined.
  • Assemble the Mousse: Spoon a layer of the raspberry sauce into the bottom of each glass.
  • Carefully spoon or pipe the white chocolate mousse over the raspberry layer, filling the glasses.
  • Repeat the layers if desired or if your glasses are tall.
  • Chill and Garnish: Refrigerate the mousses for at least 30 minutes to set.
  • Just before serving, garnish with fresh raspberries and white chocolate shavings for a touch of elegance.
