Awesome! This is the best chocolate mousse pie I have ever made.
OK am I the only one who ran into problems here? The mousse was way way too stiff and it was crunchy from the pudding powder. I added about 1 cup of half and half to compensate and then it wasn't chocolatey enough for me so I added some Special Dark syrup. I still felt like there was a little too much crunchy texture from the pudding so I heated the gelatin back to hot before adding it in as the last step. That helped a lot! The recipe was good in the end with a little fixing up but not a 5 star. My favorite recipe for mousse is richer with melted dark chocolate and this recipe pales in comparison to it so only 4 not 5.
This recipe was delicous. It was ready in a snap. I brought it to my sisters' house for Christmas dessert and it disappeared. From reading one of the other reviews I cut down on the amount of rum used in the whipped topping. Instead of 2 teaspoons I only used half a teaspoon. I found the flavor just right. Also instead of chocolate curls I crushed Oreo cookies (minus the filling) and sprinkled that on top. Wonderful!!!
My daughter-in-law made this cake and what can i say - Delish! I plan on making it too when I have occassion. 5 Stars
Could never get the topping to work. Tastes great without it. For those who don't love the rum flavor you can use only 1 tsp instead of 2.
Very tasty very easy to make. Cutting back on the rum is definitely a good idea though.
Excellent and easy to make.
I wish I would have read the reviews before I made this recipe for my family for Thanksgiving. I love rum but this recipe was too overboard. Definetly cut back. This was my first Thanksgiving and I'm glad I made 4 different pies because the look on my families face when they tried this it was priceless. Not a good thing though. I must say however this recipe was extrememly easy to make and if you are pressed for time this is the route to take!
