Pricked the crust with a fork to make the lines in the shell and baked. A reasonable solution; easy, crispy & flakey, not too sweet. Not happy with the mousse now. Used a recipe calling for mango puree, whipped cream, and beaten egg whites. It's too light and airy, won't support the cookie or the "pearl". Also very light on the flavor. Will have to try out a recipe with gelatin next for a stiffer consistency.
