Creating the Cadbury Flake Mousse Tart is as easy as pie—or should I say tart? With a total preparation time of just about 20 minutes, plus some chilling time, this dish is a breeze! The combination of a rich chocolate crust and a silky mousse makes it incredibly satisfying and mouthwatering.

Ingredients

• 2 cups crushed chocolate cookies (Oreo or Digestive)
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 Cadbury Flake bars, crushed
• 2 more Cadbury Flake bars, crumbled
• Optional: Shaved dark chocolate for extra richness

Step-by-Step

1. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed chocolate cookies and melted butter. Stir until the mixture is fully combined. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan to form an even layer. Chill in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.
2. Make the Mousse Filling: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream!
3. Add the Chocolate: Stir in the crushed Cadbury Flake bars into the mousse mixture, blending well to incorporate.
4. Assemble the Tart: Remove the chilled crust from the refrigerator. Spread the mousse mixture evenly over the crust, smoothing the top as you go. Sprinkle the extra crushed Cadbury Flake bars on top for decoration.
5. Chill: Cover the tart with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best results. This step allows the mousse to set properly and allows the flavors to meld.
6. Serve: Slice the tart into generous pieces and garnish with extra chocolate shavings if desired. Enjoy!
