For the white chocolate mousse

  • 6 oz white chocolate, finely chopped Use high-quality white chocolate for best results.
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream, divided 1 cup for whipping, 1/2 cup for mixing.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

Make the Raspberry Sauce

  • In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until raspberries break down, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook for another 2 minutes, or until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool.

Prepare the White Chocolate Mousse

  • In a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler), melt the white chocolate, stirring until smooth. Let it cool to room temperature.

Whip the Cream

  • In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.

Combine

  • In another bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in the melted white chocolate gently, and then gently fold in the whipped cream until well combined.

Assemble the Parfaits

  • In serving glasses, layer the white chocolate mousse, raspberry sauce, and fresh raspberries. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, ending with a layer of mousse on top.

Garnish

  • Top each parfait with fresh raspberries and chocolate shavings or curls.

Chill

  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Notes

Use quality ingredients for best flavor. Chill your mixing bowl for fluffier whipped cream.
