Ingredients

  • 2 cookies large, any kind
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3 Tbsp. powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp. cacao powder
  • 4 strawberries pureed

Instructions

  • Crush cookies and place on the bottom of the glass. Spread evenly between two glasses.
    2 cookies
  • In a large bowl beat cold whipping cream with powdered sugar until soft peak with electric mixer.
    1 cup heavy whipping cream, 3 Tbsp. powdered sugar
  • Divide the mousse evenly into two separate bowls.
  • For one part of the mousse: add cacao and mix until all will become smooth, for few seconds.
    1 tsp. cacao powder
  • For the second mousse: add 3 tablespoons of pureed strawberries and combine well.
    4 strawberries
  • Pour the chocolate mousse on top of the cookies. You can use the spoon.
  • Pour strawberry mousse on top of the chocolate mousse.
  • Decorate with remaining strawberry puree or cookies if you still have some.

Notes

  • Cookies - any kind of cookies can be used including biscuits, oreos, shortbread, leftover cake, brownies, donuts etc.
  • Strawberries - puree fresh strawberries before adding to the mousse.
  • Do not over beat the whipping cream. Stop mixing when you notice a soft peak is formed. Few seconds of mixing is enough, you only need to combine ingredients.
  • The whipping cream is not stiff and you don't need piping bag for that, use the spoon to pour the mixture.
  • Additionally, you can sprinkle some leftover crumbs of cookies on top of the whipped cream and decorate with fresh strawberries.
