How To Make chocolate mousse pie

Step 1CRUST: Combine graham cracker crumbs, cocoa and sugar in 9 inch pie plate. Stir in butter until moistened; press onto bottom and sides of pie plate. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle 1/2 cup chips over bottom of hot crust; let stand for 10 minutes or until all chips are shiny. Spread chocolate over bottom and up side of crust. Cool to room temperature.

Step 2Microwave 2 cups chips and 3/4 cup cream in large, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on high power for 1 minute; stir, just until chips are melted. If necessary, microwave an additional 10 to 15 second intervals. Cool to room temperature.

Step 3Beat remaining cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in chilled small mixer bowl until soft peaks form. Fold 2 cups whipped cream into chocolate mixture. Spoon into crust; swirl top. Garnish with whipped cream. Refrigerate until firm. Microwave remaining 1/4 cup chips in heavy-duty plastic bag on high for about 30 seconds; knead until smooth. Cut tiny corner from bag; squeeze to drizzle chocolate over pie. Let stand a few minutes before serving.
