How to put candy canes on rim of glasses
- Place a little bit of corn syrup in a shallow dish. Place crushed candy canes in another shallow dish.
- Dip the rim of each glass in a little bit of corn syrup, allowing the excess to drip off before you set the cup upright. Let the corn syrup sit for a 2-3 minutes then dip each rim into the crushed candy canes. Let them set before adding the mousse.
How to assemble the glasses
- Pipe the mousse in the glasses, alternating between the chocolate mousse and the peppermint mousse. Make 3 or 4 layers.
- Place the glasses in the refrigerator to set for 1 hour.
