Chocolate Marshmallow Mousse Cake

This cake makes me swoon. First there’s the Oreo cookie base, which is always a winner in my books. Followed by a layer of marshmallow chocolate mousse (yes I said marshmallow) and finally, a thin layer of chocolate ganache AND a scattering of chopped Kit Kats!

This is one No Bake Chocolate Marshmallow Mousse Cake to remember. And THAT chocolate mousse is no ordinary chocolate mousse – it’s made with melted marshmallows, chocolate and cream. Hello!

INGREDIENTS :

300 grams (approximately 30) Oreo cookies
115 grams (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
250 grams (3 cups) marshmallows
120 ml (1/2 cup) milk
360ml (1 and 1/2 cups) thickened or heavy cream
200 grams (1 and 1/3 cup) semi-sweet or dark chocolate, pieces
120 ml (1/2 cup) thickened or heavy cream
75 grams (1/2 cup) dark or semi-sweet chocolate, pieces
Kit Kats for decorating

INSTRUCTIONS :

Lightly grease a 9 inch (23 cm) springform baking tin with a little butter and set aside. Add your Oreo biscuits (cream and all) to a food processor and blend until they resemble fine crumbs. Melt your butter in the microwave and then pour over your crushed Oreos and whiz again until the mixture resembles wet sand. Pour your Oreo mixture into your prepared tin and press down gently to form an even layer. Pop in the fridge.
Place your marshmallows in a heatproof bowl and pop on top of a saucepan filled with a small amount of water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl will not touch the water below. Place on a medium-low heat and stir gently as the marshmallows slowly start to melt. Once they are slightly melted, add the milk and continue to stir until smooth.
Meanwhile, beat your cream until soft peaks form using an electric mixer. Once the marshmallow mixture is smooth (it’s ok if there are a few small marshmallow lumps), stir in the chocolate pieces until combined. Remove from heat and gently fold through your whipped cream. Pour the chocolate marshmallow mousse over your Oreo crust, cover with a piece of alfoil and place in the fridge overnight or for at least 6-8 hours.
