Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar (for crust)
• 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons dark chocolate (shavings, optional for garnish)
• 1 cup whipped cream (for topping, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, making sure to form an even layer along the bottom and up the sides.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and set. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

Step 5

Melt the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in 15-20 second intervals, stirring in between. Let the melted chocolate cool slightly.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.

Step 7

Gently fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream using a spatula. Do this in stages to avoid deflating the mousse.

Step 8

Pour the chocolate mousse into the cooled pie crust and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 9

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until set. For best results, let it chill overnight.

Step 10

Before serving, garnish the pie with dark chocolate shavings and dollops of whipped cream, if desired.

Step 11

Slice and enjoy your Heavenly Chocolate Mousse Pie!
