Ingredients

Make It

Step 1

Microwave 1 1/4 cups morsels and 3/4 cup cream in medium, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 1 minute; STIR. Morsels may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until smooth. Stir in vanilla extract. Cool to room temperature.

Step 2

Line 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with 2 overlapping sheets of plastic wrap, allowing 4-inch overhang on all sides.

Step 3

Combine crushed cookies and butter in medium bowl. Press onto bottom of prepared loaf pan.

Step 4

Beat 3/4 cup cream and powdered sugar in small chilled mixer bowl until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold whipped cream into chocolate mixture until blended. Spoon half of chocolate mousse (about 1 1/2 cups) over cookie layer; smooth top. Freeze for 2 hours or until very firm. Cover and refrigerate remaining chocolate mousse.

Step 5

Spoon sherbet over frozen chocolate layer; smooth top. Freeze for 2 hours or until very firm.

Step 6

Spoon remaining chocolate mousse over sherbet layer; smooth top. Freeze for 2 hours or until very firm.

Step 7

Microwave remaining 1/2 cup morsels and remaining 1/4 cup cream in small, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 1 minute; STIR. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until smooth. Cool for 10 minutes. Spread evenly over mousse layer. Freeze for 4 hours or overnight.

NOTE:

Full freezing time is necessary. Each layer must be frozen solid before topped with the next layer for a clean result.

TIPS:

• May be layered with other flavors of sherbet or ice cream. • To cut slices more easily, run hot water over knife blade and dry prior to cutting.
