Ingredients

• 24 pieces Chocolate sandwich cookies
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2.5 cups Heavy whipping cream, divided
• 0.25 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Fresh raspberries
• 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 0.5 cups Extra raspberries (for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a food processor, grind the chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, then set it aside to cool completely.

Step 5

Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a large heatproof bowl.

Step 6

In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips, let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.

Step 7

In a small bowl, combine the gelatin powder with water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom, then microwave for 5-10 seconds until fully dissolved.

Step 8

Add the dissolved gelatin and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the cooled chocolate mixture, stirring well to combine.

Step 9

Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, whip 1 cup of heavy cream and the powdered sugar to medium peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture until smooth and fluffy. Pour the chocolate mousse into the cooled crust, spreading it into an even layer.

Step 10

Layer the fresh raspberries evenly over the chocolate mousse.

Step 11

In a clean mixing bowl, whip the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy cream to soft peaks and spread or pipe it over the top of the raspberries.

Step 12

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.

Step 13

Before serving, garnish with extra raspberries and optional chocolate shavings. Slice and enjoy!
