Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Crush mint leaves in a small saucepan and add water; bring to a near boil, lower heat, and simmer for 10 minutes. Strain mint leaves from water and measure 3 tablespoons mint water. Reserve any remaining mint water for another use.

Step 3
Beat cream in a bowl using an electric mixer until soft peaks form; fold into white chocolate mixture.
Step 4
Whisk egg whites in a large bowl until soft peaks form; fold into white chocolate mixture using a rubber spatula. Divide mousse among 6 dessert cups and chill until set, at least 1 hour.
