- Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool completely before continuing
- Fold in the table cream without whey, the beaten egg whites, vanilla extract, and chopped walnuts, mixing everything gently
- Transfer the mousse into a serving dish or individual bowls and refrigerate for several hours until it reaches the desired consistency

Featuring a smooth texture that pairs the richness of condensed milk with the crunch of walnuts, it is an ideal choice for anyone looking for a comforting dessert. Pro tip: remember to remove the whey from the table cream to ensure the consistency remains firm after chilling.
