Servings: persons

6 ounces semisweet baking chocolate, chopped
3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
3 large eggs, separated
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup cold heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons white sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (9 inch) prepared chocolate cookie crumb crust
Chocolate Whipped Topping:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt

1
Chill a large bowl for about 1 hour.
2
Melt chocolate and butter in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until smooth, about 5 minutes; remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Whisk egg yolks into chocolate one at a time, allowing each yolk to blend completely before adding the next.
3
Beat egg whites in another bowl until foamy. Beat in cream of tartar. Gradually beat in 1/4 cup white sugar until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the tip of the peak formed by the egg whites should curl over slightly.
4
Beat 1/2 cup heavy cream in chilled bowl until thickened. Add 2 tablespoons white sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract; continue to beat until soft peaks form.
5
Gently fold egg whites into chocolate mixture. Fold whipped cream into chocolate mixture until mousse is just blended. Spoon chocolate mousse into pie crust. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
6
Beat 1 cup heavy cream, 1/3 cup white sugar, 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract, and salt in bowl until soft peaks form. Spoon over chocolate mousse before serving.
