Step 1 –Chill a medium bowl in the refrigerator.

Step 9 –Cover the saucepan and refrigerate the mousse mixture, stirring occasionally, until it is chilled, about 2 hours.

Step 11 –Use a rubber spatula to gently combine the mousse mixture with the whipped cream. Be careful not to deflate the cream.
