If you’re looking for a bit of “wow” factor at your next dinner or dessert party, give these little guys a go. They’re number one in a series of three white chocolate tartlets that will have anyone you serve them to thinking you are a pastry chef extraordinaire, even though they are quite simple to make.
Not only are these little tartlets simple, elegant and, of course extremely tasty, they’re the perfect dessert for a larger gathering, since prep can be done on sheet pans or directly on serving platters. Just lay them out and let your guests, friends or family dive in. The taste is something like vanilla bean ice cream drizzled with caramel, but a bit subtler, so these should appeal to just about anyone!

White Chocolate Mousse Tartlets with Caramel Bourbon Vanilla Sauce Recipe
Ingredients
- White Chocolate Mousse
- Caramel Bourbon Vanilla Sauce
- 2 packages (2.1 0z each) frozen mini fillo (or phyllo) shells (30 total), thawed
Instructions
- Transfer White Chocolate Mousse from bowl to a 1 gallon zip top bag (or a pastry bag with a pretty tip, if you have or prefer it). Cut approximately 1/2 inch opening in one corner of bag: evenly pipe mousse into each pastry shell.
- Immediately before serving, pipe slightly warned caramel bourbon vanilla sauce over each tartlet. The simplest method for this is to transfer some of the sauce into a zip top bag and cut a very small opening in one corner, then simply pipe over in a crisscross pattern. Alternately, simply drizzle the sauce off the tip of a small spoon.
- Serve immediately.
- Share and Enjoy

What I would have done differently had I thought of it at the time:
A sprinkling of toasted macadamia nuts or spicy salt-roasted peanuts might be nice here. perhaps a white chocolate curl or two? Use your imagination!
