  5. Prepare cookie base by mixing dough, roll out and cut into rounds larger than molds.
  6. Spoon mousse into silicone molds, press cookie rounds in, and freeze overnight.
  7. Melt white chocolate and condensed milk to create glaze, stirring until smooth.
  8. Remove frozen domes from molds, pour glaze over, and let set for 15 minutes.
  9. Transfer to a platter, garnish as desired, and serve cold.
