Chocolate Mousse Filling
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 190 g (¾ cup + 3 tbsp) granulated sugar
- 225 g (8 oz) semisweet baking chocolate, chopped
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- 155 g (11 tbsp) unsalted butter, softened
- 290 ml (1¼ cups) heavy whipping cream, cold (at least 35% fat)
Whipped Cream Topping
- 200 ml (¾ cup + 1 tbsp) heavy whipping cream, cold (at least 35% fat)
- 1 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Chocolate Curls
- 100 g (3.5 oz) semisweet baking chocolate, chopped
Instructions
Oreo Crust
- Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor.
- Mix with the melted butter until evenly combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes while preparing the chocolate mousse.
Chocolate Mousse Filling
- Whisk the eggs and sugar in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water, stirring constantly. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the melted chocolate, vanilla extract, and salt. Let cool until lukewarm.
- Beat the softened butter in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment for about 5 minutes, until pale and creamy.
- Add the chocolate mixture gradually, mixing until smooth and fully combined.
- Whip the cold heavy cream in a separate bowl until firm peaks form.
- Fold the whipped cream gently into the chocolate mixture using a spatula until smooth and airy.
- Spread the chocolate mousse filling evenly over the chilled Oreo crust.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until completely set.
Chocolate Curls
- Chill a baking sheet in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
- Melt the chopped chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler.
- Spread a thin layer of melted chocolate over the cold baking sheet using an offset spatula.
- Scrape the chocolate with a metal spatula once it has set but is still slightly flexible, forming chocolate curls. Keep in a cool place.
Whipped Cream Topping
- Combine the cold heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl.
- Whip until medium-stiff peaks form, being careful not to overwhip.
- Spread the whipped cream over the chilled chocolate pie.
- Decorate with chocolate curls and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- Chocolate: Use good-quality semisweet baking chocolate for a rich, smooth filling.
- Butter: Make sure the butter is soft but not melted before whipping.
- Heavy cream: Keep it cold for the best whipped texture.
- Chilling: Refrigerate overnight for a firmer mousse and cleaner slices.
- Storage: Keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
