Mousse Preparation
- Line a small tray with parchment paper and place eight small dollops of thick cranberry sauce on it. Freeze until firm, about 1-2 hours.
- Sprinkle gelatin over two tablespoons of cold water and let bloom for five minutes.
- Heat half a cup of heavy cream until steaming but not boiling. Stir in bloomed gelatin until it dissolves completely.
- Pour the warm cream over eight ounces of finely chopped white chocolate. Let sit for two minutes, then stir until smooth. Allow to cool until lukewarm.
- Whip the remaining one cup of cold heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold into the cooled chocolate mixture.
- Fill the silicone dome molds halfway with the mousse mixture. Insert one frozen cranberry filling into each mold, then cover completely with the remaining mousse.
- Freeze the filled molds for at least four hours until solid.
Glaze Preparation
- Sprinkle glaze gelatin over two tablespoons of cold water and allow to bloom for five minutes.
- In a saucepan, combine granulated sugar, light corn syrup, and one quarter cup of water. Heat until sugar dissolves and mixture simmers, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in bloomed gelatin followed by sweetened condensed milk until fully combined.
- Pour the hot mixture over six ounces of finely chopped white chocolate, stir until glaze is smooth and shiny, then let cool to approximately 90°F.
- Carefully unmold the frozen mousse domes and place them on a wire rack over a lined baking tray.
- Evenly pour the glaze over each frozen dome, then transfer each dome onto a round shortbread cookie. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Decoration
- Top each mousse dome with a swirl of whipped cream, sprinkle with red and green Christmas sprinkles, and finish with a fresh cranberry and a sprig of rosemary.
