Day 66 - Thank you, Paula Dean, for this Chocolate Mousse Pie recipe!!
Temperatures soared in the 90's, humidity index over 100 degrees. Understandably, my baby sister requested "something cold and chocolate" for her birthday. Paula Dean's Frozen Chocolate Mousse Pie - the recipe for which she graciously published on page 125 of The Chocolate Issue, Food Network Magazine, March 2012, filled the bill. (Incidentally, this magazine happens to be in my possession out of the unending kindness of Ashley, my lovely and amazing powerlifting ex- teammate and current friend. ) Delightfully tall, not unlike my sister herself, and fluffy (which my sister most certainly is not), this frozen treat is primarily whipped cream. Help yourself to a great big piece for it is mostly air. Tastes divine. The only tweaking I did to Paula's pretty much perfect confection was to substitute Amaretto for the chocolate liqueur - Amaretto being in my mother's liquor cabinet while Godiva was not.
