Looking for an easy recipe for a nice, cool and light chocolate mousse or truffle.
Something similar to to awesome chocolate mousse in the M%26amp;M Meatshops Chocolate Truffle Dream Cake.
I've been craving this for a while and would love to make it!
Thanks :)Any recipes for a nice chilled chocolate mousse/truffle like in M%26amp;M Meatshops Chocolate Truffle Dream cake?
Chocolate Mousse Torte
This is the ultimate cake of cakes !!!! Takes a little time but very impressive !!
CAKE
3 foil wrapped bars (total 6 oz ) Semi-sweet chocolate baking bar
1 1/4 cup water, divided
2 1/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/4 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
MOUSSE FILLING
1 foil wrapped bar ( 2 oz) Chcocolate semi- sweet baking bar
2 TBSP of sugar
1 1/2 cup heavy cream, divided
VIENNESE GLAZE
4 foil wrapped bars ( 8 oz ) semi- sweet chocolate baking bar
2/3 cup heavy cream
3 TBSP powdered sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla
Cake
Preheat oven to 375
Combine over hot water ( not boiling)
3 baking bars and 1/4 cup water
Stir until bars are melted and mixture is smooth
Set aside
Combine flour, salt and baking soda
Set aside
Combine sugar, butter, and vanilla, beat well
Add eggs one at a time
Blend in chocolate mixture
Gradually add flour mixture with 1 cup of water
Spread into 4 greased 9 inch round pans
This will not take long to bake. Original recipe calls for 2 pans and then splitting cakes which is a crumby mess. The 4 pans is much quicker and makes a much nicer cake.
Cool cakes and remove form pans
Spread 3 of the layers with the mousse filling ,placing the 4th cake on top with no filling
A good idea is to put this i the refrigerater a few min, to set the filling before putting on the glaze
The glaze will set very fast and it will have a veery nice smooth look to it.
GLAZE
In med pan over low heat
Combine chocolate bars, heavey cream, and powdered sugar
Stir untill mixture is smooth
Add vanilla
Transfer to small bowl
Cool to room temp
Pour over cake
If I make this in the summer I like to get leaves like lilac ones, wash them and dry
Brush the top of the leaves in melted chocolate and put in freezer on wax paper to harden
Carefully peel off leave and place the 3 chocolate leaves in the center of the cake
