Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups (170g) crushed Maria cookies
  • 4 tbsp (56g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups (480ml) heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 1 can (14 oz / 397g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) rice milk
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp (8g) ground cinnamon
  • 1g salt
  • 8 cinnamon sticks
  • Ground cinnamon for dusting

Instructions:

  1. Combine the crushed cookies, melted butter, and 1/4 tsp cinnamon in a bowl until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  2. Spoon roughly 2 tbsp (30g) of the cookie mixture into the bottom of each of the 8 glasses.
  3. Press down firmly with the back of a spoon to create a flat, compact layer.
  4. In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, rice milk, vanilla, 1 tbsp ground cinnamon, and salt until completely smooth.
  6. Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture to lighten it.
  7. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the remaining cream using a cut-and-fold motion until no white streaks remain.
  8. Pipe or spoon the mousse evenly over the cookie bases in each glass.
  9. Smooth the top and garnish with a cinnamon stick and a dusting of ground cinnamon.
  10. Chill in the refrigerator for 4 hours before serving.
