And yes, Dina - way better than store bought

Chocolate Mousse Pie

Combine in a saucepan, over low heat:
1/4 cup plus 2T water
1/4 cup plus 2T sugar

When Sugar is dissolved add:
4 oz semi sweet baking chocolate

When Chocolate is melted, stir a little into:
3 beaten egg yolks
Put back into the pot, bring to a gentle boil, boil two minutes more. Let cool to luke warm.

Beat
3 egg whites and 1/4 tea. cream of Tartar to soft peaks

Slowly add:
3 T. sugar

Beat to stiff peaks.
Fold chocolate and egg whites together.

Whip:
3/4 Cups heavy cream
Fold into chocolate.

Put into crust of choice. I prefer a homemade oreo crust. Refrigerate 6+ hours for best results.

Enjoy!!!

Note: If you're a wuss about eating raw eggs (love you Laura!!!), you can use the pre-pasturized ones :)
