Instructions
Prepare the crust.
- Place the Oreo cookies into the bowl of a food processor and crush until crumbs form. Add melted butter and process until evenly moistened.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased 8 inch (20 cm) springform pan using the back of a spoon. Refrigerate until the first layer of mousse is prepared.
Prepare the chocolate mousse layers.
- In a heat proof bowl add the semi-sweet chocolate and 1/2 cup (120g) whipping cream. Place the bowl over a saucepan with simmering water, over low heat, until all the chocolate is melted. Meanwhile dissolve gelatin in cold water and let it swell for about 5 to 10 minutes. Place the gelatin over low heat just until the gelatin dissolves and pour it over the melted chocolate mixture. Let the chocolate mixture cool completely at room temperature.
- Whip the remaining 2/3 cup (160g) chilled whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Add melted chocolate mixture and mix until well combined.
- Pour the chocolate mousse over the crust and refrigerate for about 15-20 minutes to set slightly, until you prepare the next layer of chocolate mousse.
- Repeat the same steps for preparing the milk and white chocolate mousse layers.
- Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
- Run a knife around the edges of the cake to remove the sides of the pan.
- Before serving dust the top of the cake with cocoa powder and decorate with fresh berries if desired. Enjoy!
