  2. Make the Cookie Base: Combine flour, baking soda, ginger, and salt. Mix molasses, brown sugar, and egg yolk until smooth. Incorporate dry ingredients to form dough, roll out and cut into rounds.
  3. Assemble the Domes: Spoon mousse into molds, press cookie rounds in, top with more mousse, smooth, cover, and freeze overnight.
  4. Glaze the Domes: Melt white chocolate with condensed milk. Add food coloring and cool to 90°F. Pour over frozen domes on a wire rack.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Remove from molds, dust with cocoa powder or garnish with a mini gingerbread cookie, and serve.
