To assemble

  1. 5
    Whip the cold cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla to stiff peaks. Set aside.
    ⚙ WhippingBowlHand mixerorStand mixerorWhisk
    💡Whip cream very cold, in a chilled bowl with chilled beaters, and stop when it holds firm: overwhipping turns it grainy and buttery.
  2. 6
    In a separate bowl, mix the cream cheese with some of the Lotus spread, until smooth.

  3. 7
    Fold the whipped cream into the cheese mixture gently, in two or three additions.
    ⚙ FoldingSilicone spatula
    💡Fold with a spatula, in broad strokes from the bottom up, and stop when there are no streaks: vigorous mixing knocks the air out of the foam. Add whipped mixtures in stages: a quarter first, to lighten the mixture.
  4. 8
    Divide the mousse among the glasses, over the crumb base, and chill at least 1 hour, until the mousse is set.
    Refrigerator
  5. 9
    Decorate with the rest of the whole biscuits and the rest of the Lotus spread.
