Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
- Whip the Cream: In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
- Combine Ingredients: Gently fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream mixture until fully combined.
- Add Oreos: Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies.
- Chill: Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
- Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish with extra crushed Oreos and a whole Oreo cookie on top.
Notes
For a richer chocolate flavor, consider using dark chocolate chips.
To keep the mousse airy, be gentle when folding in the chocolate and crushed Oreos.
Garnish with crushed Oreos just before serving to maintain their crunch.
