Preparation

Mousse:

In a medium large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat peanut butter together with brown sugar and salt.

Beat in ¼ cup (60 mL) cream, then beat in another ¼ cup (60 mL) cream just until blended.

In a medium bowl, beat remaining ½ cup (125 mL) cream together with 1 Tbsp. (15 mL) sugar and vanilla until peaks form.

Fold into peanut butter mixture in 3 additions.

Divide mousse into 4 martini glasses.

Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Peanut praline:

In a small skillet, toast peanuts on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown.

Add remaining 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) sugar.

Cook, stirring continuously to prevent burning, until the sugar caramelizes and turns a deep brown colour, 1 to 2 min.

Immediately remove from heat and turn out onto a small lightly oiled baking sheet.

When peanuts are cool enough to handle, break into pieces.

Just before serving the mousse, sprinkle peanuts over top, there will be some left over for nibbling.
