Vanilla Mousse with Vanilla custard sauce

mousee 1

Vanilla mousse is a flavourful dessert served with toppings of different variations.  This dessert is creamy & light and the garnish is simply with the vanilla custard sauce & few chocolate flakes.  The ingredients may sound simple but the resulting mousse is perfectly balanced and really taste.  If you fancy a simple dessert, this really hit the spot.  More than that, kids will love it :)

Ingredients :

For vanilla mousse :
  1. Eggs - 2 nos
  2. Powdered sugar - 1/2 cup
  3. Vanilla extract (I used vanilla bean) - 1 tsp
  4. Heavy whipping cream - 1 pint
For vanilla sauce :
  1. Milk - 500 ml
  2. Sugar to taste
  3. Vanilla custard powder - 2 tbsp
Can adjust the proportion of ingredients accordingly.
