Ingredients
  

Cookies

  • 8 to 10 pieces of chocolate cookies (Oreos or any similar chocolate cookie of your choice)

Chocolate

  • 100 grams semisweet or dark chocolate, chopped or in chip form

Cream

  • 300 ml heavy whipping cream, well chilled

Instructions
 

  • Place the cookies in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin until fine crumbs form, or pulse them in a food processor until small pieces remain.
  • Chop the chocolate into small pieces if using a bar, then place it in a heatproof bowl with 50 ml of the cream and melt gently over a double boiler, stirring until smooth while keeping the bowl above the simmering water.
  • Remove the bowl from the heat and let the melted chocolate cool for 5 to 6 minutes so it is warm but not hot.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whip the remaining 250 ml of chilled cream with a hand mixer until soft peaks form, then fold half of this whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture to create a smooth mousse.
  • Fill one piping bag with the mousse and another with the plain whipped cream, or keep them in bowls if spooning, then layer crushed cookies at the bottom of each serving glass, followed by chocolate mousse and then whipped cream.
  • Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled to your liking, sprinkle extra cookie crumbs on top, and serve right away or refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours for a chilled version.
