Crust
1 (9-ounce) box chocolate wafer cookies, broken into pieces
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Mousse
1/3 cup Chambord (black raspberry-flavored liqueur) or crème de cassis (black currant-flavored liqueur)
1 1/2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
2 (12-ounce) packages frozen unsweetened raspberries, thawed, drained, juices reserved
1/2 cup sugar
