Cooking instruction summary:

You can pre-buy a crust for this, but the only thing I didn’t quite understand is how this recipe would fit into those shallow pre-made pies. I used my 9 inch deep dish pie plate and this fits perfectly. So in my version, make your own crust.Take the crumbs and melted butter and combine. Press into your 9 inch pie plate, creating a bottom and sides. Put into the fridge to firm up while you make the rest of the pie.Take ½ cup of the chips and mix into your softened ice cream then spread onto your pie crust. Place this into the freezer.Melt the rest of your baking chips in a saucepan over medium heat with ½ cup whipped cream,stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and then stir in the egg yolks well. Place back onto the stove and heat for another 3-5 minutes, until the mixture started to thicken, stirring it every now and them. It’s really important NOT to let this mixture boil at this point.Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.Whip the last cup of whipping cream until stiff peaks form and then fold into the chocolate mixture. This is why you absolutely cannot have that mixture warm but still need it fairly fluid, you have to incorporate it but if it’s the least bit hot, it won’t work and things start melting and it’s so very, very sad so don’t do it.Once it’s folded in all beautifully, you have completed your mousse! Spread over the ice cream in the crust and then place it back into the freezer for a solid 4 hours.When you are going to serve it, let it stand at room temperature for 10 minutes, but this depends on if you use homemade ice cream or not. My homemade ice cream softens MUCH faster than store-bough

 

Step by step:


1. You can pre-buy a crust for this, but the only thing I didn’t quite understand is how this recipe would fit into those shallow pre-made pies. I used my 9 inch deep dish pie plate and this fits perfectly. So in my version, make your own crust.Take the crumbs and melted butter and combine. Press into your 9 inch pie plate, creating a bottom and sides. Put into the fridge to firm up while you make the rest of the pie.Take ½ cup of the chips and mix into your softened ice cream then spread onto your pie crust.

2. Place this into the freezer.Melt the rest of your baking chips in a saucepan over medium heat with ½ cup whipped cream,stirring constantly.

3. Remove from the heat and then stir in the egg yolks well.

4. Place back onto the stove and heat for another 3-5 minutes, until the mixture started to thicken, stirring it every now and them. It’s really important NOT to let this mixture boil at this point.

5. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.Whip the last cup of whipping cream until stiff peaks form and then fold into the chocolate mixture. This is why you absolutely cannot have that mixture warm but still need it fairly fluid, you have to incorporate it but if it’s the least bit hot, it won’t work and things start melting and it’s so very, very sad so don’t do it.Once it’s folded in all beautifully, you have completed your mousse!

Food Joke

A young couple got married. When the wife prepared to bake a ham to celebrate their first Thanksgiving, she carefully cut off each end before placing it in the pan.Her husband asked her why she did that and she replied, "I don`t know - it`s what my mother always did. But I can ask her."She called Mom, who responded, "I always saw your Grandma do it, so I did the same."They decided to check further, so the young woman called Grandma, who explained, "It was the only way I could get it to fit into my pan."
