Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cookie Base: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix dry ingredients: flour, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and brown sugar. Add molasses and egg yolk to form dough. Roll and cut into rounds; bake for 10-12 minutes and cool.
  2. Make the Mousse: Bloom gelatin in cold water. In a saucepan, warm espresso with brown sugar and spices. Stir in melted white chocolate and gelatin. Cool slightly before folding into whipped mascarpone and cream.
  3. Assemble the Domes: Spoon mousse into molds, press cookie rounds into mousse, cover, and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  4. Prepare the Glaze: Combine condensed milk with glaze ingredients in a saucepan. Heat until warm, stirring until smooth. Cool slightly.
  5. Glaze the Domes: Remove domes from molds, place on a wire rack, pour glaze over, allowing excess to drip off.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Transfer domes to plates, garnish if desired, and serve chilled.
