Ingredients

• 25 pieces Chocolate sandwich cookies
• 6 tablespoons (melted) Unsalted butter
• 8 ounces Dark chocolate
• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 4 large Eggs (separated)
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
• 0.25 cup Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a food processor, pulse the chocolate sandwich cookies until they become fine crumbs.

Step 3

Add the melted butter to the cookie crumbs and pulse a few more times until combined. The mixture should resemble wet sand.

Step 4

Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust.

Step 5

Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, then remove it from the oven and let it cool completely.

Step 6

Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.

Step 7

In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.

Step 8

Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes. Stir until smooth and glossy, then set aside to cool slightly.

Step 9

In a medium bowl, whisk together the 4 egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until pale and thick.

Step 10

Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture until fully combined.

Step 11

In a clean mixing bowl, beat the 4 egg whites and a pinch of salt with a hand mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.

Step 12

Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the chocolate mixture in three batches, being careful not to deflate the mixture.

Step 13

Pour the mousse into the cooled cookie crust and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 14

Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight until the mousse is firm.

Step 15

Before serving, optionally top with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings for extra decadence.
