Ingredients

Pie "crust"

• 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 packet sweetener

Bottom layer

• 1 cup minus 1 tablespoon lukewarm water
• 1 package Wise Choice Frozen Dessert Mix
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Sweetener equivalent to 6 teaspoons sugar
• pinch salt
• 2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder

Top layer

• 1 cup whipping cream
• Sweetener equivalent to 1 tablespoon sugar, or to taste
• 2 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
• Pinch salt
• 2 tablespoon Wise Choice Mousse Mix

Directions

Makes 8 servings.

Prepare pie pan with cooking spray. Sprinkle the teaspoon of cocoa and packet of sweetener over the bottom.

Bottom layer

Make sure that anything that touches the unwhipped mixture, including measuring spoons and cups, is grease-free.

1. Place water in a one-quart glass or metal mixing bowl. Add Wise Choice Frozen Dessert Mix and sweetener. With an electric mixer on LOW, mix until powder is dissolved. Scrape down sides of bowl.

2. Turn electric mixer to HIGH and whip for 2-4 minutes or until foam forms peaks.

3. Add extract, sweetener, and salt. Whip for 1 minute more to make firm peaks. As gently as possible, mix in unsweetened cocoa. Transfer to prepared pie pan. Freeze uncovered until firm.

Top layer

1. Pour cream into medium bowl. Add sweetener, cocoa and salt. Whip to soft peak stage with mixer on medium-high setting.

2. Turn setting to low and add Wise Choice Mousse Mix. The mixture will thicken almost immediately.

3. Pipe or swirl the mousse over the frozen pie. Freeze uncovered. Cover with plastic wrap after top is frozen.

To serve: allow to sit at room temperature for a few minutes, until a knife easily penetrates the mousse layer. Cut into individual serving wedges. Serve before the lower layer melts.

To store: cut into servings, cover, and keep in freezer, covered with plastic wrap. Allow it to soften slightly before serving.
