Stir white chocolate, 1/4 cup cream and 2 tablespoons syrup in heavy small
saucepan over low heat until chocolate is melted and smooth. Pour into
medium bowl; cool to barely lukewarm. Using electric mixer, beat 3/4 cup
cream in medium bowl to medium-firm peaks. Fold cream into white chocolate
mixture in 2 batches. Divide mousse among 4 custard cups. Cover and
refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead.)
Bring remaining 6 tablespoons cream and remaining 2 tablespoons corn syrup
to simmer in heavy small saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to low; add
bittersweet chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Cool to room
temperature. Spoon enough sauce over each mousse to cover completely.
Garnish with mint, if desired.
