Instructions

Bloom the gelatin in a small bowl of cold water. In a saucepan, combine warm espresso with brown sugar until dissolved and stir in white chocolate, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In another mixing bowl, beat mascarpone and heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold the cooled mousse base into this whipped cream mixture until well combined and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whisk flour, ground ginger, and a pinch of salt. Stir in molasses and egg yolk until a soft dough forms. Roll out and cut circles for the cookie base.
Prepare silicone dome molds by greasing them and fill with the mousse mixture, pressing cookie rounds into mousse until just submerged. Cover and freeze overnight.
Gently heat glazing ingredients until warm. Remove mousse domes from molds and place them on a wire rack over a baking sheet. Pour warm glaze over the domes evenly.
Present the glazed domes on a serving plate, decorating with cocoa powder or mini gingerbread cookies as desired.

Notes

For a lighter version, you can substitute cream cheese for mascarpone.
Make sure the glazing ingredients are warm enough for even coating on the mousse domes.
