Honey Mousse and Toppings

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare Honey Mousse

In a bowl, combine gelatin and water; let it sit until it blooms. In a saucepan, heat honey until warm, then whisk in the bloomed gelatin until dissolved. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold the honey mixture into the whipped cream. Chill in the refrigerator until set, about 2 hours.

2

Make Butterscotch Sauce

In a small saucepan, combine Bärenjäger liqueur and brown sugar over medium heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved and the mixture is slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.

3

Prepare Meringue

Preheat the oven to 225°F (110°C). Beat egg whites with granulated sugar until stiff peaks form. Gradually add cornstarch and vanilla extract. Pipe meringue onto a baking sheet and bake for 1.5 hours. Turn off the oven and let meringues cool inside.

4

Make Bee Cookies

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, cream butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in flour, salt, and almond extract until combined. Roll the dough into small bee shapes and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool.

5

Assemble

In serving glasses, layer honey mousse, drizzle with butterscotch sauce, and top with a piece of crisp meringue and a bee cookie.
