Ingredients

Scale

Crust

20 Oreo cookies, crushed
4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Mousse

1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

Create the crust: Mix the crushed Oreo cookies with the melted butter until well combined. Firmly press the mixture into small serving cups to form an even crust layer.
Melt the chocolate: Microwave the semi-sweet chocolate chips in short intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Let the melted chocolate cool slightly before proceeding.
Whip the cream: In a mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy cream together with granulated sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Fold chocolate and cream: Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cooled melted chocolate, then carefully fold in the remaining whipped cream to maintain a light and airy mousse texture.
Assemble and chill: Spoon the prepared mousse evenly over the Oreo crusts in the cups. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the mousse to set and flavors to meld before serving.

Notes

Ensure the whipped cream is cold for better whipping results.
Be gentle when folding to keep the mousse fluffy.
Chill for longer if you prefer a firmer mousse texture.
Use mini cups or ramekins for individual servings.
Optionally garnish with extra crushed Oreos or chocolate shavings before serving.
