Chocolate Mousse Pie Recipe: Yields 8 servings

Everyone loves pie and this is one that is sure to please !

1        9 inch chocolate crumb pie crust (buy pre-made at the store)
1/4     teaspoon ground cinnamon
1        12 oz. package of semi-sweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
1 1/2  cups heavy cream divided
1         teaspoon ground cinnamon
1         teaspoon vanilla
1         teaspoon bourbon or bourbon extract
1/4     cup powdered sugar

Sprinkle chocolate crust with 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon.  Set aside.

Combine chocolate chips and 1/2 cup heavy cream in a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high 1 to 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until chocolate chips are melted and smooth. Stir in remaining 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and the vanilla & bourbon extracts.

Chill chocolate mixture, stirring frequently until chocolate is cooled to room temperature.

Once chocolate mixture is cool, use an electric mixture to beat remaining 1 cup of heavy cream gradually adding the powdered sugar until soft peaks form.  Stir in 1/3 of  whipped cream into the chocolate mixture.  Gently fold in the remaining whipped cream; spoon chocolate mixture into crust.  Cover and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours or until set.  If desired, garnish with additional whipped cream and chocolate curls.
