  • 1 tbsp butter, melted

  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
  • 8 oz semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • Reddi-wip
  • Sprinkles

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Combine cookie crumbs and melted butter. Keep a couple tablespoons aside for topping, then divide the remaining crumbles between the cups for the mousse.
  2. In a metal or glass bowl, whisk together egg yolks, sugar and 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream until combined.

Remove egg mixture from heat and set aside.
