I’m not into gadgets, but my mini-cheesecake pan comes in handy for lots of desserts, including this one (it comes in two sizes). I first tasted this when a friend made a pareve version. The top and bottom were amazing, but I knew the middle layer could be totally transformed if it were milchig. And it was. So now I never bother making it pareve. With a heavenly crust, these dairy mousses are perfect together.
Combine butter with remaining crust ingredients and press into the bottom of a baking pan or mini-cheesecake pan (I used the Chicago Metallic three-inch mini cheesecake pan with removable bottom. You can also use a 9- x 13-inch pan).
Melt butter together with coconut flakes.
Pour over frozen vanilla cheese mousse.

vanilla mousse HI. You wrote that you changed the middle layer recipe to milchig , but there’s nothing milchig in the list of ingredients. It also says to pour the chocolate mixture over ‘cheese’ layer. Please clarify. Thanks
Cream cheese was missing from the ingredient list, we just added it. Thanks!
Replacement for coconut Is there anything i can replace with coconut? Or can i just leave it out?
You can replace the coconut with almond flour.
served frozen? Do you serve the mousse frozen? Or defrost and serve from the fridge?
Thanks
I think from the freezer, but you might want to defrost it a bit first.
coconut in crust you say the butter melted with coconut, and then list coconut as next ingredient. one cup or two cups total of coconut
Thanks for pointing this out. It’s one total. See revised recipe.
how can i make this pareve should i just sub the butter for marge?
Yes, just substitute the butter for margarine.
You mentioned you changed the middle layer to milchig, also you say to pour choc mousse onto ‘cheese’ mousse, but in the list of ingredients for middle layer mousse there’s nothing milchig! Please clarify. Thanks
