Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries Bright, aromatic, and bursting with sweet-tart flavors.
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips Silky, creamy morsels that melt beautifully.
  • 1 cup heavy cream Rich and velvety, elevating your mousse to cloud-like perfection.
  • 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese, softened Adds unparalleled richness and smooth texture.
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar Enhances the flavors without overpowering them.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract Fragrant and warm, elevates the flavor profile.
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (optional) Adds delightfully crunchy texture.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-second intervals and stirring between each interval. Allow to cool slightly.
  2. Whip the heavy cream using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  4. Carefully fold the melted white chocolate into the mascarpone mixture, then gently fold in the whipped cream.
  5. If using, sprinkle graham cracker crumbs at the bottom of each glass.
Layering
  1. Layer the mousse mixture into the glasses starting with a dollop of mousse, followed by a few fresh raspberries. Continue layering until the top.
  2. Finish with a final layer of mousse.
  3. Garnish each parfait with fresh raspberries and a sprig of mint.
Chilling
  1. Refrigerate the parfaits for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the mousse to set.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for easier mixing. Use high-quality white chocolate for best flavor.
