In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch (23 cm) pie pan to form a crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to set for at least 15 minutes.
Place the chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, heat 150 ml of the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer, then pour it over the chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until the chocolate is fully melted and glossy. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, whip the remaining 150 ml of heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Once the chocolate mixture has cooled to room temperature, gently fold the whipped cream into it until fully incorporated. Pour the chocolate mousse into the chilled pie crust and smooth the surface with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
Sprinkle the gelatin powder over the 60 ml of water in a small bowl and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
Dissolve the strawberry jelly crystals in 250 ml of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved. Let the mixture cool for 5 minutes, then microwave the bloomed gelatin for 20 seconds to liquefy it, and stir it into the jelly mixture.
Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the chocolate mousse layer. Carefully pour the cooled jelly mixture over the strawberries, ensuring they are evenly coated. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours or until the jelly is firm.
Slice and serve the pie chilled, optionally garnished with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
