This 5-Minute Peanut Butter Mousse is a quick, creamy, and indulgent dessert combining smooth peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and whipped heavy cream. It’s light, fluffy, and perfect for a fast treat or elegant dessert served in jars.

Ingredients

Scale

Peanut Butter Mixture

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

Whipped Cream

  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Mix Peanut Butter Base: 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 Heavy Cream: In a separate mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, meaning the cream stands up firmly when the beaters are lifted.
  3. Combine Cream with Base: Gently fold one-quarter of the whipped heavy cream into the peanut butter mixture to lighten it. Then fold in half of the remaining cream and mix well. Finally, fold in the rest of the whipped cream until the mixture is fully combined without deflating the airiness.
  4. Pipe and Serve: Transfer the mousse into a piping bag fitted with a swirly tip for a decorative effect. Pipe the mousse into mason jars or glass jars. Enjoy immediately for a softer texture or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let it set and develop a firmer consistency.

Notes

  • Use smooth peanut butter for a creamier mousse without peanut chunks.
  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
  • You can refrigerate the mousse for up to 24 hours in an airtight container.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute cream cheese and heavy cream with vegan alternatives and coconut whipped cream.
