Now that Thanksgiving is over and I have pictures of this ohmysweetgoodness shamefully wonderful pie, I can share the recipe so that you have it in time for Christmas! You must make this pie. It's horribly rich, but light as air. And it's so sinfully delicious. I made it for Thanksgiving today and all but one slice disappeared. Which is good, because I ate it when we got home. Hehe.
I made my graham cracker crust by smashing up one sleeve of crackers and mixing with about 6 tablespoons of melted butter and some brown sugar. Then blind bake it for about 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Let cool completely before filling. Or you can use store bought. I won't tell!
Chocolate Mousse Pie
1 Graham cracker crust
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 C heavy cream
1/2 C cocoa powder
1 C powdered sugar
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 C heavy cream
In a large bowl beat together cream cheese, 1/2 cup cream and cocoa powder until fluffy. Add sugar, vanilla and salt. Beat until smooth.
In a separate bowl beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold into chocolate mixture. Pour into pie shell, decorate with a hand full of mini morsels if you'd like, and chill for about 4 hours, or until firm.
Happy Eating,
Meg

It also looks really easy. A definite plus!
I thought I was full until I saw that photo. It's making my mouth water! It looks and sounds delicious.

Oh, I will most definately make that pie! I have some graham crackers left over from last winter's trip to the US, and this looks like just the thing to use them for!
