How to Make Phyllis Cake Chocolate Mousse Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the crust by crushing 1 ½ cups of chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs. Mix in 6 tablespoons of melted butter until evenly moistened. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool completely.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate (melted), 1/4 cup of strong brewed coffee, and 1/4 cup of powdered sugar until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the chocolate mousse into the cooled pie crust.
  6. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the mousse to set.
  7. Before serving, garnish with fresh whipped cream and chocolate shavings (optional).
