Directions:
- Heat the oven to 325°F.
- Make the crust. In a small bowl, combine the gingersnap crumbs, butter, and granulated sugar. Press the crumb mixture into a 9-inch pie pan and bake for 6 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
- Make the filling. In a small bowl, combine the gelatin with 1/2 cup cool water and let sit for 5 minutes until the gelatin softens and blooms.
- In a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat, bring the milk, cocoa, 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar, and the salt just to a simmer, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the heat and add the gelatin, stirring until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
- Put the egg yolks into a medium bowl and beat lightly. Gradually, in a slow stream, add 1/2 cup of the chocolate mixture to the egg yolks while whisking continually. Pour the chocolate-egg yolk mixture into the pan with the remaining chocolate mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until slightly thickened, about 8 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool for about 20 minutes or until barely warm.
- Using an electric mixer, in a large bowl, whip the egg whites to soft peaks. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and the vanilla, and whip to stiff peaks. Gently fold the cooled chocolate mixture into the meringue in three additions.
- Spoon the chocolate mixture into the cool pie crust. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Whip the cream with the confectioners' sugar. Place dollops of cream over the pie. Grate the semisweet chocolate over the pie.
