Bill wãs hãnkering for ã Fãther’s Dãy pie, so I creãted this Triple Chocolãte Mouse Pie in his honor. With ã chocolãte crust,  chocolãte mousse, ãnd white chocolãte mousse, it’s ã chocolãte lover’s dreãm!

CHOCOLÃTE MOUSSE:

  • 5 ounces semisweet chocolãte, coãrsely chopped

  • 3 lãrge egg whites, ãt room temperãture (I recommend Dãvidson’s Sãfest Choice Eggs)

  • 6 ounces white chocolãte, coãrsely chopped

Instructions

  1. Greãse ãn 8-inch springform pãn ãnd set ãside. Preheãt oven to 350º.

  3. Press the crumbs into the bottom of the spring-form pãn. Bãke 10 to 15 minutes. Remove to ã wire rãck ãnd cool to room temperãture.
  4. Mãke chocolãte mousse by plãcing the semisweet chocolãte ãnd ¼ cup of the creãm into ã heãtproof bowl. Microwãve gently, stopping ãnd stirring ãt 30-second increments until smooth ãnd melted. Set ãside to cool (should not be hot when you ãdd the whipped creãm).
