5-Ingredient St. Patrick’s Day Peppermint Mousse

January 29, 2016 by Andrew Eaton Leave a Comment

Serve the perfect St. Patrick’s Day dessert this year when you make this simple 5-Ingredient St. Patrick’s Day Peppermint Mousse. Creamy, green, and delicious, this dessert pairs perfectly with your traditional Irish meal.

St. Patrick's Day Peppermint Mousse

Mousse is a favorite dessert in our house and this peppermint white chocolate mousse is the perfect dessert to share during your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.

St. Patrick’s Day is a holiday that we love to really get into! We celebrate with green clothes, drinks, and usually make a home cooked traditional Irish dinner with a sweet dessert to cap off the night.

With winter passing us by, time to think about St. Patrick’s Day desserts and plan this years’ celebrations. Do you know how your family will be celebrating this year? Besides going to see the parade and an Irish meal, we’ll definitely be serving this St. Patrick’s Day Peppermint White Chocolate Mousse!

I’m happy to be able to share the recipe here on SoFabFood with you today. It’s a fun and simple recipe; and you can even get the kids involved! You don’t need any special kitchen appliances; a simple handheld mixer is all you’ll need to make this mousse.

Follow the recipe below to make this delicious dessert. One tip I found incredibly helpful is to keep the white chocolate chips together while melting them in the sauce pan. The clump seems to melt better than if you spread them out.

The great thing about this St. Patrick’s Day Peppermint Mousse is that it’s very easy to make and you can serve it any time of year. It will always be a hit at your gatherings. I find it fun to serve this mousse in mini-shooter glasses, and our guests always love it that way too.
