I made this last night for a dinner party…followed the recipe to a T – it was more like pudding, what a disappointment…1 star

Hi Janet, it sounds like you overmixed the mousse. This is a pretty common mistake and totally fixable! It’s important to gently fold the whipped cream into the white chocolate mixture– those stiff peaks are what keep the mousse light and fluffy, and it’s easy for them to deflate and turn back into pudding. You can whip some more cream and gently stir it into the mousse to fix this issue!

I’ve just checked the recipe, and the chocolate is changing when I adjust the serving size. How many servings are you looking to make? I can do the calculations manually for you!

It should be fine to make a bigger batch right? Since it’s pretty much 1:1 ratio I can just use around 500g chocolate & 500ml cream?

I can’t locate the Fannie May white chocolate squares what can I use in their place. The website says they aren’t available.
