Peanut Butter Mousse Ingredients

  • 1 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the peanut butter mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the peanut butter, softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. Set this mixture aside.
  2. Whip the heavy cream: In a separate mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, which means when you lift the beaters, the cream holds its shape firmly.
  3. Combine the mixtures: Gently fold ¼ of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture to lighten it. Then fold in another half of the whipped cream and mix well. Finally, fold in the remaining whipped cream until everything is just combined and fluffy.
  4. Pipe and chill: Transfer the mousse into a piping bag fitted with a swirl tip and pipe into mason jars or glass containers. You can enjoy the mousse immediately for a soft texture or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for a firmer consistency.

Notes

  • Use smooth peanut butter for the creamiest texture. Chunky varieties can make the mousse lumpy.
  • Softened cream cheese should be at room temperature to blend easily without lumps.
  • If you don’t have a piping bag, you can spoon the mousse into containers and smooth the tops with a spatula.
  • Refrigerating the mousse will help it firm up and improve the texture.
  • This mousse can be garnished with chopped peanuts, chocolate shavings, or a drizzle of honey for added flavor and presentation.
