Note

Ensure the white chocolate is cooled slightly before adding it to the cream cheese to prevent the mixture from becoming too thin.

For best results, use room temperature cream cheese to avoid lumps in the mousse.

If sun-dried cherries are unavailable, you can substitute with dried cranberries or chopped strawberries.

Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The texture may become denser as it sits.

To unmold, run a warm knife around the edges of the mold and invert onto a serving plate.
