Ingredients:
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 2 cups cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- Chocolate shavings and chocolate truffle (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
- Make the Cheesecake Layer: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firm.
- Prepare the Chocolate Mousse: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with cocoa powder until stiff peaks form. Gently spread the whipped chocolate mousse over the chilled cheesecake layer.
- Garnish and Chill: Sprinkle chocolate shavings generously over the top. Place a chocolate truffle in the center for an elegant touch. Refrigerate for at least one more hour to allow the layers to set and flavors to blend.
- Serve and Enjoy: For the best experience, serve the cake chilled. Enjoy this rich and creamy Triple Chocolate Mousse Cake, perfect for any chocolate lover!
