Sweet Mascarpone Mousse with Do-Si-Dos

Use Girl Scout Do-Si-Dos Peanut Butter Creme Cookies in this rich mousse

Yield: Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

2 cups mascarpone cheese (see note)

4 egg yolks

1/2 cup sugar

12 Girl Scout Do-Si-Dos Peanut Butter Creme Cookies quartered (half of a 9-oz box)

8 teaspoons plus 1 tablespoon Frangelico liqueur

12 strawberries

1/2 cup whipping cream, for garnish

Add To

Directions:

Using a wooden spoon, beat mascarpone cheese in a large mixing bowl until very smooth. In top of a double boiler over simmering water, whisk egg yolks and sugar until they reach 130 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Stir egg mixture into cheese, mixing well. Chill mixture 1 hour.

Place 12 cookie quarters in the bottom of each of 4 dessert glasses. Pour 2 teaspoons Frangelico over the cookies in each dish. Add 2 sliced strawberries to each glass. Pour mascarpone mixture into glasses. Chill 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, beat cream until soft peaks form, add 1 tablespoon Frangelico and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Garnish each glass with whipped cream and a whole strawberry; serve.

Note:
Mascarpone is a rich, triple-cream Italian cheese often eaten mixed with fruit. It can be purchased at some Italian markets and gourmet food shops. If Mascarpone is not available, substitute an equal amount of cream cheese.
