  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Mousse:

  • 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (for melting chocolate)
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Topping:

  • Chocolate shavings or curls (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Mix cookie crumbs and melted butter, press into pan, and chill.

  3. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Top with chocolate shavings before serving.

  • You can add a pinch of instant espresso powder to the chocolate for extra flavor.
  • These bars are rich, so cut into small squares.
