Instructions

  1. Lightly spray a 9 inch pie dish.
  2. Crush the wafers in a food processor or with a rolling pin. Make sure to get them nice and fine.
  3. Measure out 1 and 1/2 cups of crumbs, and toss with the melted butter until well blended. Press the crumbs evenly into the 9 pie plate, I like to use the bottom of a metal cup measure to help me get them evenly and firmly patted down. Refrigerate.
  4. Whip 1 cup of the cream and set aside.
  5. Blend the bourbon and brown sugar together, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. You may want to let it sit for a few minutes. Then blend that into the remaining half cup of cream.
  6. Whisk the pudding mix with the bourbon infused cream. Whisk for 2 minutes to allow it to thicken. Fold in the whipped cream until no streaks remain. You can gently whisk the mixture if that helps.
  7. Pour the filling into the crust and smooth out the top if necessary. Refrigerate for 6 hours, or overnight, before serving.
  8. Garnish with chocolate shavings or curls.

Notes

  • I think you could layer the crumbs and the mousse in dessert glasses for a killer parfait.
  • Keep the pie chilled when not serving.
  • I worked on this recipe a few times before getting it just the way I liked it, but it's possible the bourbon will be too strong for you, and if it is, feel free to reduce it.
  • I think you could layer the crumbs and the mousse in dessert glasses for a killer parfait.
  • Cut down the calories in the recipe by using whole milk for the non-whipped portion of the cream.
