My mother made this silky pie when I was a child. It was my father's favorite. The fluffy chocolate-almond filling is held in a thin chocolate shell. Be warned, it is so rich that you should only take a sliver.-Jamie Burkhart, Windsor, Missouri

CHOCOLATE AMARETTO MOUSSE PIE

My mom had this recipe for a long time and never got around to making it. Very smooth, creamy dessert - works any time of the year. Of course, if you don't want to make it as a pie, just make the mousse filling and chill in wine glasses. The prep time does not include the chilling time for the pie to set.

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 pie

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 separated eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 (1/4 ounce) envelope unflavored gelatin
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 ounces semisweet chocolate
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 cup Amaretto
1 cup heavy cream
1 chocolate graham wafer pie crust

Steps:

  • Beat the egg whites until peaks form.
  • Beat in 1/4 cup sugar until the mixture is stiff and glossy.
  • Mix yolks, milk, gelatin, the remaining sugar, and salt.
  • Combine over low heat with the chopped chocolate.
  • Heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture has combined, smoothed, and thickened.
  • Remove from heat and add vanilla and amaretto.
  • Whip the cream.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture over the egg whites, folding to combine.
  • Cool mixture; when cooled, fold in the whipped cream.
  • Pour into the crust and refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving.

Tips:

  • Use good quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
  • Make sure the cream is cold before whipping it. This will help it to whip up quickly and smoothly.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular pie plate. Just be sure to trim the excess dough around the edges.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. The filling should be slightly jiggly in the center.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to firm up.
  • Serve the pie with whipped cream, fresh berries, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

Conclusion:

This chocolate amaretto mousse pie is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The chocolate mousse filling is rich and creamy, with a hint of amaretto flavor.
