  1. Oh Char!!! No wonder this is your favorite Mousse Pie!! This is the richest and creamiest mousse pie I have ever tasted! You will only need a small slice of this chocolatey slice of heaven! Very, very rich and delicious! I prepared exactly as Char suggested and used a chocolate Oreo cookie pie crust. I decorated with whipped cream and shaved curls of chocolate accented by a few fresh raspberries to the side, highlighted by a few mint leaves. What a delightful way to end a meal! This recipe will be made over and over again in my home. I simply can not believe it has not been reviewed before now! I am honored to be the first! Thank you, Charishma!
     
  2. Made a similiar recipe to this on the weekend - much less sugar - only 2 tablespoons and more cream. I made as individual pies and lined each Graham Cracker shell with melted milk chocolate chips which were chilled beore the mousse mixture was added. Pretty awesome
     
  3. thanks for the easy and great recipe! i don't even have to use any eggs for this.
     
  4. This was soo easy and turned out great.I didn't have any semi sweet chips, so I ended up using milk chocolate chips instead.I also didn't have any chocolate crumbs, so I improvised and used regular graham crumbs with cocoa and sugar added.It was so light and fluffy and not overpowerlingly sweet(probably because of the limitations of my pantry!!)Looking forward to trying it as written.Thanks for a great and easy recipe!
     
  5. I am a chocolate lover, so I was eager to make this pie - but I have to say that I didn't enjoy the taste. It tasted like...plain, chocolate. When I think of a "mousse" I think of something fluffy and light. This pie was very rich and stiff. The recipe reads, "Slowly add the chocolate mixture and mix well." Does this mean add the chocolate to the whipped cream, while still mixing with the electric mixer (which is impossible to do w/only 2 hands) OR does it mean to gently fold in to the whipped cream? Maybe if the recipe was more specific, it would have turned out better!
