Description

Silky smooth 5-minute peanut butter mousse delivers pure indulgence in just moments. Rich creamy texture and deep nutty flavor combine effortlessly, promising a quick dessert that melts on your tongue with luxurious comfort.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 cup peanut butter (smooth)
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Sweetener:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Combine peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a spacious mixing vessel, whipping until the mixture achieves a velvety, uniform consistency.
  2. In a separate pristine bowl, vigorously whip the heavy cream until it forms elegant, structured peaks that hold their shape.
  3. Delicately incorporate a quarter of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture, gently stirring to create a lighter, airier texture.
  4. Introduce another half of the whipped cream, meticulously folding and blending until the ingredients harmonize seamlessly.
  5. Gently fold in the remaining whipped cream, continuing to mix until the mousse transforms into a silky, homogeneous delicacy.
  6. Transfer the luscious mousse into a piping bag equipped with an ornate tip, artfully dispensing the creamy confection into elegant glass or mason jars.
  7. Serve immediately for a soft, cloud-like experience, or chill in the refrigerator for half an hour to achieve a more substantial, firmer mousse consistency.

Notes

  • Whip cream to stiff peaks carefully to maintain its airy texture and ensure a light, fluffy mousse.
  • Fold whipped cream gently into the peanut butter mixture to preserve the delicate air bubbles and prevent deflating.
  • Chill the mousse for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor and achieve a firmer, more decadent consistency.
  • Use a piping bag with a decorative tip for an elegant presentation that makes the dessert look professionally prepared.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain freshness and taste.
  • Room temperature ingredients blend more smoothly, so let cream cheese and peanut butter sit out for 15 minutes before mixing.
