CHOCOLATE MOUSSE PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 375 F. Lightly spray an 8-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
• In a food processor, combine the crushed cookies and sugar; pulse a few times to combine. With the food processor running on low, slowly add the melted butter until the mixture comes together.
• Transfer the cookie mixture to the prepared pie dish. Press the mixture evenly in the bottom of the dish and up the sides.
• Bake until set, about 12 minutes. Set aside while you make the mousse filling.
• Gather the filling ingredients.
• Separate the egg yolks from the whites. In a large bowl whisk the egg yolks and sugar until light and frothy, about 1 minute.
• Heat 3/4 cups of the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to steam.
• Remove from the heat, add the chocolate, stirring until it's melted completely. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, about 3 minutes.
• Very slowly whisk the chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture until fully combined. Set aside to cool until room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• In another large bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form.
• Fold about 1/3 of the egg whites into the chocolate-egg yolk mixture with a silicone spatula-do not worry too much about losing any of the air from the egg whites.
• Fold the remaining egg whites into the chocolate-egg yolk mixture until only a few streaks remain (careful not to overmix).
• Using the bowl the egg whites were in, beat the remaining 1/4 cup cream on medium speed until stiff peaks form.
• Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate-egg yolk mixture until no streaks remain.
• Transfer the mousse to the baked pie crust, spreading into an even layer. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, but overnight is best.
• Gather topping ingredients.
• When ready to serve, make the whipped cream. Beat the cream, sugar, and vanilla with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
• Top the pie with the whipped cream and chocolate shavings just before serving.

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• For the mousse: Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler. Remove and allow to cool a little.
• Add the cream to a large bowl and start to whip using a hand mixer. Slowly add the sugar and continue to whip until you have stiff peaks, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Place the egg yolks in a pitcher, add the vanilla and whisk together by hand.
• Temper the egg yolks by adding a little of the melted chocolate to them and whisking together. Pour the yolks into the bowl of melted chocolate and stir in gently.
• Fold three-fourths of the whipped cream into the chocolate, reserving the rest.
• Divide between 4 serving glasses.
• Gently fold the raspberry preserves into the reserved whipped cream until you achieve a swirled appearance. Spoon some of the swirled whipped cream on top of the mousse in each glass.
• Place the glasses into the fridge and chill for 1 hour. Remove from the fridge and decorate with Marbled Chocolate Curls before serving.
• Add the semi-sweet and white chocolate to separate small microwave-safe bowls or pitchers. Add 2 teaspoons of the coconut oil to each. Pop in the microwave together for 1 minute. Stir each until smooth, microwaving for another 10 to 15 seconds, if needed, to fully melt the chocolate.
• Lay a sheet pan on the counter upside down. Start by pouring the white chocolate in a zig-zag pattern over the underside of the cookie sheet; do not get too close to the edges. Repeat with the semi-sweet chocolate, making sure to fill the holes where there is no white chocolate. Using an offset spatula or knife, spread the chocolates in a very thin layer, then stick the sheet pan in the freezer for 2 to 3 minutes. This step is key!
• After a few minutes, check the chocolate by pressing it with your finger; it should leave only the slightest mark, but not an actual depression.
• Using a somewhat sharp-edged spatula, scrap the chocolate from the bottom of the pan. If the chocolate is the correct temperature, it should begin to curl. If the chocolate is breaking, it is too cold so let it sit for a few seconds to warm, then try again. If it gets too soft, stick it back in the freezer for a minute.
• Pretty soon you will have some pretty marbled chocolate curls. Use as a garnish immediately on chilled desserts or immediately transfer to a cold plate and place back in the freezer to harden. Store in an airtight container in the freezer until you need them. The curls are perfect for topping your favorite pies, cakes or elevating a simple fruit platter.

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Bring an inch of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Combine the cream and chocolate in a large heatproof bowl. When the water boils, turn the heat to low so the water is barely simmering or just steaming. Set the bowl over the saucepan and melt the chocolate, gently stirring with a whisk now and then.
• While the chocolate melts, whisk the egg whites in a clean bowl using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer on medium speed. When the whites are foamy, add the sugar in a slow stream while whisking. Continue whisking until stiff peaks form. The whites should look glossy but not dry, and, when you lift the whisk from the mixture, a peak should form in the bowl and hold.
• Once the chocolate has melted completely, turn off the heat but leave the bowl over the saucepan. Holding the bowl with a kitchen towel, add the egg yolks one at a time, whisking after each addition. If the mixture looks broken, remove the bowl from the saucepan, cool for a minute, then add 1 tablespoon cream and whisk just until shiny and smooth. Whisk in the vanilla. (Don't worry if it still doesn't look completely smooth. It will come together in the next step.)
• Add a quarter of the beaten whites to the chocolate mixture and stir gently with a flexible rubber spatula until incorporated but still a little streaky. This will make it easier to fold in the remaining whites to create an airy mousse by gradually lowering the temperature of the chocolate (tempering) and making the mixture loose.
• Add the rest of the whites and fold them in by running the spatula from 12 o'clock on the bowl to 6 o'clock, then scooping up the chocolate on the bottom and gently folding it over the whites as you move toward 9 o'clock. Rotate the bowl 90 degrees and repeat. Continue folding just until the last streak of white disappears. It's OK if there are a few lumps of whites left. It's better to not deflate the batter by folding too much.
• Scoop into a pretty bowl or into individual cups or bowls for serving if you'd like. Otherwise, keep it in the mixing bowl. Refrigerate the mousse uncovered until cool, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 more hours and preferably 24. The covered mousse can be refrigerated for up to 5 days.
• If you'd like to serve the mousse with whipped cream, whisk heavy cream until soft peaks form. A cup or two of heavy cream is plenty for this amount of mousse. Serve the mousse cold, straight from the refrigerator, with the whipped cream.
