Chocolate Mousse Layer Cake Recipe

Slice the cooled cake horizontally into two thin layers.

Place one cake layer at the bottom of a springform pan. Spread a layer of dark chocolate mousse.

Add the second cake layer, then spread milk chocolate mousse on top.

Smooth the top and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) until firm.

4. Make the Ganache

Heat cream until just boiling. Pour over chopped chocolate.

Stir until smooth and glossy. Let cool slightly before pouring over the chilled cake.

5. Garnish

Let the ganache drip beautifully along the edges.

Top with chocolate shavings or chunks for a rich finish.

Serving Tip

Slice with a hot knife for clean layers. Pairs perfectly with a cup of coffee or espresso.
