Ingredients

Scale

Peanut Butter Mousse Base

  • 1 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Whipped Cream

  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Peanut Butter Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the smooth peanut butter, softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined and creamy.
  2. Whip the Cream: In a separate mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, ensuring it is light and fluffy.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Gently fold ¼ of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture to lighten it. Then fold in another half of the whipped cream thoroughly. Finally, fold in the remaining whipped cream until fully combined, maintaining the airy texture.
  4. Pipe and Serve: Transfer the mousse into a piping bag fitted with a swirly tip. Pipe the mousse into mason jars or glass containers. Serve immediately for a soft texture or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up before serving.

Notes

  • Use smooth peanut butter for the best texture in this mousse.
  • You can refrigerate the mousse up to 24 hours before serving; just keep it covered.
  • For a lighter sweetness, adjust the powdered sugar quantity to taste.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature to blend easily.
  • The vanilla extract adds depth to flavor but can be omitted if desired.
