Bailey's Chocolate Mousse Pie is a decadent dessert that combines the smoothness of chocolate mousse with the richness of Baileys Irish Cream. This pie has a crunchy crust made from a baked pie shell that complements the creamy filling. It's perfect for St. Patrick's Day celebrations or other festive occasions. The pie is easy and fast to make and requires no baking skills. It can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days, making it a great dessert for meal prepping.

Instructions

1.	Preheat your oven to 375°F. Roll out the pie crust onto a 9 inch pie dish and trim the edges. Prick the bottom all over with a fork.
2.	Bake the crust for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
3.	In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup of cold water. Let it stand for 5 minutes to soften.
4.	In a medium-sized skillet, set the heat over low and add the milk, vanilla extract, and Baileys Irish Cream. Once combined, add the chocolate chips and continue stirring until the coconut oil has melted.
5.	Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the softened gelatin until dissolved. Cool the mixture to room temperature.
6.	In a large mixing bowl, add the container of frozen Cool Whip. Fold in the chocolate mixture, stirring until no white streaks remain. Pour the mixture into the baked pie crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
7.	Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm. To serve, slice the Bailey's Chocolate Mousse Pie into wedges and enjoy!
