Prepare the Butterscotch Mixture:
Begin by placing the milk, mini marshmallows, and butterscotch chips into a medium-sized saucepan. Set the saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Continue to stir until the marshmallows and butterscotch chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Once melted, remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract. Stir to combine. -
Cool the Mixture:
Pour the mixture into a medium-sized bowl. Set the bowl over a large bowl filled with ice water. Allow the mixture to cool and thicken, whisking frequently for about 10 to 15 minutes. This step is crucial as it helps achieve the mousse’s light and fluffy texture. Donβt skip it! -
Whip the Cream:
In a separate bowl, pour the double cream and beat it with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. This will take a few minutes, so be patient and keep an eye on it to avoid overbeating. -
Fold and Combine:
Once the butterscotch mixture has cooled and thickened, gently fold it into the whipped cream. Use a spatula to combine the two, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream. -
Refrigerate:
Spoon the mousse into individual dessert cups. Place the cups in the refrigerator and let them chill for at least 2 hours, or up to 2 days. The longer they chill, the better the mousse will set. -
Serve:
Serve the Butterscotch Marshmallow Mousse as a luxurious dessert at your next dinner party or gathering. Itβs perfect for sharing with friends and family.
