CAPPUCCINO MOUSSE PIE
This is very r-i-c-h due to the amount of whipping cream, but well worth the splurge. The recipe came from my mom's collection of clippings, from a magazine. For a change, I have made this without the crust - just layering the filling(s) in clear glasses ( I actually used those mini plastic wine glasses for a large crowd. I also have been known to add 2 tablespoons of coffee liquer to the whipping cream mixture before beating. Feel free to garnish with whipped cream & chocolate curls (and fresh raspberries if you have any). NOTE: Cooking time=chilling time.

Steps:
- Melt chocolate chips - either in the microwave, 1-1 1/2 minutes, or stovetop in a small double boiler. Mix whipping cream, coffee granules, sugar and vanilla (and coffee liquer if you are using) in a large bowl until the coffee granules dissolve. Beat with electric mixer on high until stiff peaks form when beaters are lifted.
- Remove & reserve 1 1/2 cups of the coffee whipped cream.
- Gently fold the melted chocolate into the remaining whipped cream until well blended. Spread this evenly in the crust.
- Spread and swirl the coffee whipped cream over the mousse. Chill until set. This will take at least 1 hour in the refrigerator, or 30 minutes in the freezer.
- Garnish & serve.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 9" pie pan; set aside.
- 2. Prepare brownie batter as directed on package. Pour into prepared pan.
- 3. Bake brownie just until it tests done; remove from oven and let cool to room temperature.
- 4. Meanwhile, combine milk and instant mousse mix and whip for 5 minutes.
- 5. Pile prepared mousse into cooled brownie base, and chill until serving time.
Tips:
- Chill the ingredients before making the mousse. This will help the mousse set properly and give it a light and fluffy texture.
- Use high-quality chocolate for the mousse. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the pie.
- Be patient when making the mousse. It takes a little time to whip the cream and chocolate together until it is light and fluffy.
- Don't overbeat the mousse. Overbeating can cause the mousse to become grainy.
- Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours before serving. This will give it time to set properly.
- When serving, top the pie with whipped cream, cocoa powder, or chocolate shavings.
Conclusion:
Cappuccino mousse pie is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its light and fluffy texture and rich coffee flavor, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
