Preparation
- Combine the finely ground chocolate graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of your tart pan to create a sturdy crust.
- Bloom the gelatin by sprinkling it over cold water in a small bowl. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes until it swells and softens.
- Melt the white chocolate chips with milk in a saucepan over low heat. Stir gently until the mixture is smooth and fully combined, taking care not to let it burn.
- Dissolve the bloomed gelatin into the melted white chocolate mixture. Add in the powdered sugar, stirring until everything is silky and well-mixed.
- Whip 1 cup of heavy whipping cream in a separate bowl until soft peaks form. Gently fold this whipped cream into the chocolate mixture along with the peppermint oil for a delightful burst of flavor.
- Pour the luscious mousse filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set, letting all those flavors meld beautifully.
- Prepare the ganache by heating chopped dark chocolate with light corn syrup and very warm water in a saucepan. Stir until smooth and shiny.
- Cool the ganache slightly before pouring it over the set mousse tart, making sure every corner is covered to create a beautiful finish.
- Chill the entire tart for another 30 minutes to allow the ganache to set before slicing and serving.

Notes
