RCI recipe book

[canuckcruiser68]

has anyone bought the RCI recipe book? I tried on my last cruise but they were sold out. I am looking for the white chocolate mousse recipe that they usually serve on the first night. If anyone has it could they please post it for me

thanks Alicia

I have the cookbook from 2 years ago and there is no recipe for that under desserts.

I am not sure if they have a new book out since this one.

Two of their cookbooks are available on Amazon.com

Hi, this recipe is from the Royal Caribbean Holiday and Entertainment Cookbook by Rudi Sodamin, copyright 2002. The picture with the recipe shows a white mousse, although the recipe has cocoa in it. Hope it's what you're looking for.

Enjoy!

MELBOURNE VELVET MOUSSE

 

1 tsp unflavored gelatin

1 Tbs cold water

2 Tbs boiling water

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup whipping cream

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

chocolate shavings, for garnish

 

1. In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and let stand for 1 minute. Add the boiling water and stir until the gelatin is dissolved.

 

2. In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar, cocoa powder, whipping cream, and vanilla. With an electric mixer, beat on medium speed until the mixture is stiff, stopping 2 or 3 times to scrape down the sides of the bowl.

 

3. Add the gelatin mixture and beat until well blended. Spoon into dessert dishes or champagne glasses. Sprinkle with shaved chocolate. Chill, covered, for at least 1 hour before serving.

 

Makes 4 servings.
