Directions
MAKE THE SALTED CARAMEL TEA MOUSSE:
STEP 1: Fill the silicone sieve with Mosi Morning Black tea and secure it to the infuser lid.
STEP 2: Attach the lid and pour water (about 185 degrees which has small boiling bubbles) into your infuser through the spout.
STEP 3: Switch up the lock and flip the infuser upside down for 2-4 minutes. Flip over and let the tea sit for 15 minutes or until it is cooled off.
STEP 4: Meanwhile, unwrap the caramels. In a small bowl, gently heat caramels with half-and-half and salt until completely melted and smooth. Let cool to room temperature.
STEP 5: In a separate bowl, whip cream cheese, vanilla, brown sugar, and steeped tea until smooth.
STEP 6: Add completely cooled caramel mixture and heavy cream. Whip until soft peaks form.
MAKE THE WHIPPED CREAM TOPPING:
STEP 7: In a bowl, add heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla. Whip until stiff peaks form.
ASSEMBLY:
STEP 8: Use a spoon or a pastry bag with a large circular tip to pipe salted caramel mousse into small serving dishes.
STEP 9: Top mousse with a small dollop of whipped cream. For extra fun, sprinkle with gold sprinkles or edible gold glitter just before serving.
STEP 10: Serve chilled. Store in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
