Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream chilled
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tablespoons milk or additional heavy cream
- optional toppings shaved chocolate, chocolate chips, roasted peanuts, Nutter Butter cookies, whipped cream
Instructions
- Pour the chilled heavy whipping cream into a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Set aside in the fridge to keep cold.
- In another bowl, mix the peanut butter and powdered sugar together. Add 1 tablespoon of milk or heavy cream at a time, stirring after each addition, until the mixture becomes smooth and spreadable.
- Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture. Use a spatula and fold slowly to keep the mousse light and airy.
- Once incorporated, fold in the remaining whipped cream until no streaks remain. Stop folding as soon as the mixture looks uniform to avoid deflating it.
- Divide the mousse evenly into four 6 ounce cups or serving glasses. Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon, or use a piping bag with a star tip for a different presentation.
- Cover each serving with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the mousse to set properly.
- Before serving, decorate each mousse with your choice of toppings like shaved chocolate, chocolate chips, roasted peanuts, a dollop of whipped cream, or crumbled Nutter Butter cookies.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
Notes
- whipped cream
- caramel sauce
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- For a nuttier flavor, swirl in a tablespoon of finely chopped roasted peanuts while folding in the whipped cream.
- Feel free to use natural or homemade peanut butter, but note that it may result in a slightly looser texture.
- If you prefer a sweeter mousse, increase the powdered sugar by 1-2 tablespoons, based on your taste.
- Mini chocolate chips, crushed pretzels, or a drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce can be mixed in or used as a topping.
- Almond butter, cashew butter, or sun butter can replace the peanut butter for a different flavor profile.
