Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 12 ounces white chocolate, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream, divided
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Optional garnishes: fresh berries, white chocolate shavings

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Pour in melted butter and stir until evenly moistened.
  2. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Place chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Heat 1/2 cup of heavy cream in a small saucepan until simmering. Pour the hot cream over the white chocolate and let it sit for 5 minutes.
  4. Whisk the white chocolate and cream mixture until smooth and fully combined. Stir in vanilla extract and salt. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip the remaining 1 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  6. Gently fold about one-third of the whipped cream into the white chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then, carefully fold in the remaining whipped cream until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour the mousse filling into the chilled tart crust and spread evenly.
  8. Cover the tart loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the mousse is set.
  9. Before serving, carefully remove the sides of the tart pan. Garnish as desired with fresh berries or white chocolate shavings.

Notes

  • For a firmer set, you can add 1 teaspoon of unflavored gelatin bloomed in 2 tablespoons of cold water to the warm white chocolate mixture.
  • Ensure your white chocolate is good quality for the best flavor and texture.
  • This tart can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
