THE BEST CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
The best chocolate mousse must be perfect. It should taste rich, indulgent and not too sweet, with a texture that is both light-and-airy and silky-and-smooth. After many attempts we nailed it and made a dessert that not only exceeded our standards, it's also quite easy to pull off. Close your eyes and take a bite -- you'll be transported to a 4-star French restaurant.

Steps:
- Whip 1 cup of the heavy cream to soft peaks in a medium bowl (see Cook's Note). Set aside.
- Add the egg, egg yolks, sugar, espresso powder, vanilla extract, salt and 1 tablespoon water to a medium heatproof bowl and whisk to combine. Set the bowl over a medium saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Whisk constantly until the mixture is pale, hot to the touch and has almost doubled in volume, about 4 to 6 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula, if necessary. Remove from the heat and continue whisking until cooled, about 2 minutes.
- Put the chopped chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl and set over the saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Stir occasionally with a rubber spatula until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and gently stir for about 3 minutes to cool slightly.
- Whisk the egg mixture into the melted chocolate in 3 additions until combined. (The mixture may get very thick.) Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in 3 additions until it is fully incorporated. It is important that the chocolate mixture is not warm to ensure that it combines smoothly with the whipped cream without seizing up.
- Divide the chocolate mousse among four 4-ounce ramekins and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
- Whip the remaining 3/4 cup cold heavy cream to stiff peaks. Top each chocolate mousse with whipped cream and serve. (For a softer texture, allow the ramekins to sit at room temperature while you whip the cream.)
CREAMY CHOCOLATE MOUSSE PIE
The light-as-air mousse in this pie gets its sweetness from melted marshmallows and milk chocolate. Use your favorite pie crust recipe or a store-bought graham cracker crust.

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.

HEAVENLY CHOCOLATE MOUSSE PIE
Lisa's right, this sure is a heavenly chocolate mousse pie. It's very decadent. Smooth and creamy, we loved the easy to make mousse with the crunchy Oreo crust. Full of chocolate goodness, no one will believe how simple this pie is to prepare.

Steps:
- 1. Crush cookies (about 1/2 package for an 8-inch crust). Do more if you think it is not enough. Melt 1/2 stick of butter to hold the crust together. Add more butter if needed. For a pie shape you can use a pie tin, I use a spring form pan. Also is lovely with no crust and using champagne glasses or whatever fun shaped large or individual serving bowls/glasses you have.
- 2. Melt cream, chocolate, and vanilla slowly in a double boiler. You can use a heat-proof bowl over a regular pot on the stove as well. Cool to room temperature.
- 3. Beat two cups heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla, to stiff peaks.
- 4. Fold whipped cream into the chocolate mixture.
- 5. Pour into the prepared crust (can also make this in individual serving bowls). Chill 6 hours until set. I make this a day ahead.
- 6. Top with additional whipped cream. I like to do a full layer of the whipped cream on the entire top of the pie and then garnish it with shaved chocolate. You can top with whipped cream on each individual piece and Oreo's as well.
CHOCOLATE MOUSSE PIE
Sky-high and scrumptious, this fluffy chocolate delight is super to serve to company. You can put the pie together in a wink - and it'll disappear just as fast! For a nice option, mound the filling in a purchased chocolate crumb crust. -Lois Mulkey, Sublimity, Oregon

- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Combine the Oreo crumbs and melted butter together in a medium bowl. Press tightly into the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 18 minutes. Allow to cool completely. I do this the night before to save time!
- Microwave the chopped chocolate and butter together in a large heat-proof bowl, stopping and stirring every 15 seconds until completely melted. Set aside.
- Place egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar in a heatproof bowl. Set bowl over a saucepan filled with two inches of simmering water. Do not let it touch the water. (You can use a double boiler if you have one.) Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved, about 4 minutes. Transfer the mixing bowl to an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on high speed for 5-6 minutes until soft, glossy peaks form. See photo above for a visual. Gently fold mixture into the chocolate. Wash the mixer bowl and whisk attachment clean.
- Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the 2 cups of heavy cream on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 4-5 minutes. Gently fold whipped cream into the chocolate/egg white mixture. Do not overmix; it will deflate the mousse. (No need to wash or wipe the bowl/whisk attachment clean– you’ll make sweetened whipped cream in step 6.)
