Chocolate Rum Mousse Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the sugar and rum in a small saucepan and warm over very low heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
• Set aside.
• Melt the chocolate in a saucepan set over hot water.
• Stir in the rum mixture and 2 tablespoons heavy cream until smooth.
• Beat the remaining cream until light and fluffy and fold into the chocolate mixture.
• Fold in the beaten egg whites and spoon into individual serving bowls or wine glasses.
• Chill at least 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Put the cold milk and gelatin in blender. Cover and blend at low speed to soften the gelatin.
• Add boiling milk; blend until the gelatin dissolves. If gelatin granules cling to the container, use a rubber spatula to push them down.
• When the gelatin is dissolved, add the rum, egg, sugar and salt. Blend at high speed and add chocolate pieces until smooth.
• Add 1 cup of the cream and the ice cubes. Continue blending until the ice is liquefied. Pour into parfait or wine glasses and chill.
• Add vanilla to the other cup of cream and whip until stiff. Top the mousse with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• For the crumb crust: combine the nuts, flour, salt, sugar, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl, and stir to mix well. Stir in the melted butter and continue stirring until the mixture has absorbed the butter. Break the mixture into even 1/2 to 1/4 inch crumbs, rubbing with the fingertips. Place half the crumb mixture into a 9 inch Pyrex pie pan and press with the fingertips to line the pan evenly. Place the remaining crumb mixture, in an even 1/2 inch layer on a cookie sheet. Bake the crust and crumbs on the middle rack of the oven about 20 minutes, until crisp and light golden in color. Cool the crust and crumbs on racks.
• For the Mousse Filling: Whip the cream until it holds soft peaks and set it aside in the refrigerator. Sprinkle the gelatin on the water in a small, heatproof bowl. Allow to soak 5 minutes, then place over a small pan of simmering water to melt while preparing the filling.
• When the gelatin is melted, remove from the pan and allow to cool.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, or another heatproof bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Whisk in the rum, then the sugar. Place over a pan of gently simmering water and whisk constantly until thickened, about 3 minutes. If the yolk mixture becomes too hot, it may scramble.
• Remove the bowl from the water and beat by machine, on medium speed, until cooled to room temperature. Whisk in the dissolved gelatin, then fold in the whipped cream and the chopped nuts.
• Pour the filling into the cooled shell and smooth the top. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and chill until set at least 6 hours.
• To finish the pie, top with the baked crumbs. Or whip the optional cream, spread half on the mousse and top with the crumbs. Then, pipe a border of rosettes of the remaining cream around the edge of the pie with a pastry bag fitted with a star tube.

Steps:

• Chill 1 1/2 cups whipping cream in refrigerator. Chill metal mixing bowl and mixer beaters in freezer.
• In top of a double boiler, combine chocolate chips, coffee, rum and butter. Melt over barely simmering water, stirring constantly. Remove from heat while a couple of chunks are still visible. Cool, stirring occasionally to just above body temperature.
• Pour remaining 1/4 cup whipping cream into a metal measuring cup and sprinkle in the gelatin. Allow gelatin to "bloom" for 10 minutes. Then carefully heat by swirling the measuring cup over a low gas flame or candle. Do not boil or gelatin will be damaged. Stir mixture into the cooled chocolate and set aside.
• In the chilled mixing bowl, beat cream to medium peaks. Stir 1/4 of the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Fold in the remaining whipped cream in two doses. There may be streaks of whipped cream in the chocolate and that is fine. Do not over work the mousse.
• Spoon into bowls or martini glasses and chill for at least 1 hour. Garnish with fruit and serve.
• (If mousses are to be refrigerated overnight, chill for 1 hour and then cover each with plastic wrap)

Steps:

• In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin onto cold water; let stand 1 minute to soften. Stir in boiling water until gelatin is completely dissolved. It must be in liquid form when you add it to the pie filling. If it stiffens up, microwave for about 10 to 15 seconds, and then stir until lump free.
• In a large bowl, combine sugar, cocoa, and pudding mix. Stir in 2 cups cream, vanilla, and 1 teaspoon rum extract. Beat for 30 seconds with an electric mixer on low, then beat on high until stiff peaks form. Gradually mix in gelatin mixture until blended. Pour filling into pie crust.
• In a small, chilled bowl, beat 1 cup cream with confectioners' sugar and 2 teaspoons rum extract until stiff peaks form. Spread over chocolate filling. Chill at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Beat egg and sugar in small bowl until thick and creamy, stir in blended cornflour and milk.
• Pour mixture into pan, stir over heat until mixture boils and thickens.
• Remove from heat, add chocolate, stir until chocolate is melted.
• Sprinkle gelatine over water in cup, stand in small pan of simmering water, stir until dissolved.
• Add to chocolate mixture, mix well, cool to room temperature, stir in rum.
• Beat cream until soft peaks form, fold into chocolate mixture.
• Pour into pastry shell, refrigerate several hours until firm.
