Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Pour 2 tablespoons of the heavy cream into a small bowl
  2. Sprinkle the gelatin in an even layer over the cream and set it aside to bloom
  3. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the whole milk and vanilla
  4. Heat the milk until bubbles form, whisking constantly
  5. Immediately remove the pan from the heat and reduce the heat to medium-low
  6. Keep mixing, drizzle ½ cup of the hot milk into the bowl with the egg yolks, then return the mixture to the saucepan of milk
  7. Cook the custard mixture, constantly whisking, until it begins to boil and thicken up
  8. Meanwhile, heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave for 10 seconds
  9. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir the hot gelatin into the mixture until well combined
  10. Transfer the custard into a large bowl and immediately press a piece of plastic wrap onto the surface to avoid air from getting in
  11. Chill the custard for at least 2 hours, until completely cooled
  12. When ready to finish, whip the remaining heavy cream until medium peaks form
  13. Remove the custard from the refrigerator, set aside
  14. Work in 3 batches, using a rubber spatula to gently fold the whipped cream into the custard
  15. Divide the mousse into individual serving cups and seal in fridge overnight for best results
  16. The following day, top off with any fresh fruit (I used fresh blackberries rolled in sugar for contrast against the white mousse)
  17. Enjoy!

Notes

Store in fridge in air tight container or cups for best results. Can last up to a week.
