Ingredients 🛒

For the Cake Base:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup milk

For the Mousse Layers:

  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 200g milk chocolate, chopped
  • 600ml heavy cream, divided
  • 2 tsp unflavored gelatin powder
  • 4 tbsp water

For the Chocolate Glaze:

  • 100g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 100ml heavy cream

For Decoration:

  • Chocolate curls or shavings
  • Fresh mint leaves

Directions 🍽️

Prepare the Cake Base:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch springform pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mix until smooth.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely in the pan.

Make the Mousse Layers:

  1. In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
  2. Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water or in the microwave. Warm half of the heavy cream (300ml) and stir the gelatin into the warm cream until dissolved. Cool slightly, then fold into the melted chocolate.
  3. Whip the remaining cream to soft peaks and gently fold into the chocolate mixture. Spread the dark chocolate mousse over the cooled cake base.
  4. Repeat the process for the milk chocolate layer, preparing the mousse the same way. Spread the milk chocolate mousse over the dark chocolate layer.
