Choco Vanilla Zebra Mousse

Choco Vanilla Zebra Mousse



I bought these cute Irish Coffee glasses a while back and ever since then I have wondering when to use them. I came across this Choco Vanilla zebra Mousse recipe and I simply knew I had to try it out. I have made mousse using cream and egg yolks but this recipe called for condensed milk. Interesting!! HUH!!


It is a chocolate and vanilla mousse which has been given that rippled marble effect. Served in these Irish Coffee glasses they looked simply amazing. I have coated the glasses with chocolate sauce but I am sure butterscotch will taste nice too. As for garnish you can keep it simple, add some sprinkles or simply put a half Oreo on top. This will easily make up to 8 servings.

Ingredients

1 tin condensed milk ( I have used Milkmaid)
400 gms fresh cream
1 tbsp lemon juice
8 tsp gelatin
2 tsp vanilla essence
150 gm dark chocolate


First sprinkle gelatin on a cup of water and keep aside to soak. After a few minutes microwave it for 1 minute and it will dissolve.

Beat the condensed milk till it is creamy and fluffy. Add lemon juice and beat some more.


Now add 2 ½ cups water and the dissolved gelatin. Add the essence and mix well.
Beat the fresh cream and add it to the condensed milk mix.


Divide the whole thing into two parts. Melt the chocolate in the microwave, beat well and add to one half of the mixture.


Freeze for about 10 minutes so that when you are layering them they don’t get mixed.

Take them out of the freezer after 10 minutes . The mousse will have started setting a bit. Beat the two separately till smooth. Now you have two sets of mousse: vanilla and chocolate. All that remains is to assemble them.

Drizzle some chocolate sauce inside the serving glasses.


Now alternate the vanilla and chocolate mousse.
