Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Oreo cookies (or chocolate sandwich cookies)
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 0.25 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whipped cream (for topping, optional)
- 0.25 cups Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Alternatively, place them in a resealable bag and crush with a rolling pin.
In a medium bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with the melted butter and mix until evenly moistened.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form a crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool completely to room temperature.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth. Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric hand or stand mixer to beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until medium-stiff peaks form.
Gently fold approximately half of the whipped cream into the melted chocolate until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Then, fold in the remaining whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Pour the chocolate mousse into the cooled pie crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the mousse is set.
Before serving, optionally top the pie with additional whipped cream and chocolate shavings for garnish.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your easy chocolate mousse pie!
