BLACK & WHITE MOUSSE CAKE
Im a volunteer fire fighter and when I became overly pregnant and not able to respond any longer I started baking treats and taking them to the station just so I wasnt out of the loop once I returned to duty, this cake has gotten more compliments than any other dessert Ive ever made, I was even asked to make it for a rehersal...

Steps:
- 1. CHOCOLATE CAKE: Directions 1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour one 9x13 inch pan or two 9 inch round pans. 2.In a small pan melt the butter with the unsweetened chocolate. Set aside to cool slightly. 3.Cream together the sugar and the eggs until light in color. 4.Add the chocolate mixture to the eggs and temper mixture by beating well (so you don't end up with scrambled eggs!) 5.Add 1 cup coffee and blend well. Mixture will be very liquid. 6.Mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add this mixture to the chocolate mixture and blend well. 7.Mix together the vinegar and the milk and stir into the chocolate batter. Pour into prepared pan(s). 8.Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow cake to cool 30min then remove top so its level (make sure cake come out of pan) put cake back in pan and pour simple syrup over top of the slightly warm leveled cake, cover with plastic wrap and set aside
- 2. SIMPLE SYRUP: in a small sauce pan mix sugar and water with wooden spoon, bring to a boil, keep at a boil and reduce liquid to about 1/2 stiring all the time
- 3. WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE: Directions 1)Put gelatin powder and cold water in a small dish and let sit for 10 minutes to soften. 2)Melt chocolate and ½ cup of the whipping cream in the top of a double boiler, stirring all the time. 3) Stir the softened gelatin into chocolate mixture, mixing well 4) transfer the mixture to a large bowl to cool until just warm, about 10 minutes. Don't let it sit too long or the chocolate /gelatin mixture will become too firm. Chill a large bowl and a whisk or mixer beaters in the freezer for 30 minutes before you are going to whip the cream. 5) Whip the remaining cream in the bowl with the whisk or electric mixer for 2 minutes. 6) add the vanilla and almond extract 7)continue beating until the beater leaves soft traces on the surface and the cream holds its shape when lifted with the beater, about 2-3 minutes. 8)Stir ¼ of the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. 9) fold in the remaining cream, 1/3 at a time, being careful not to over blend. 10) cover with plastic wrap (wrap touching surface of mousse)and refrigerate 1 hour
- 4. Uncover cake and scoop the mousse on top of the cake refrigerate 1hr before serving I like to use a spring form pan to bake my cake, this way I can remove the ring by placing the pan on a smaller pan unlatching the ring and sliding the ring DOWNWARD to give my cake a nice clean edge and looks professional. ALSO CAKE TASTES EVEN BETTER IF MADE 24hr EARLIER and SITS OVERNIGHT IN THE FRIDGE!

Steps:
- Make the ganache: Heat the heavy cream, semisweet chocolate and espresso powder in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water), stirring, until the chocolate is melted and the ganache is smooth. Stir in the vanilla and coffee liqueur. Remove the bowl from the pan; set aside until cool and thick but still pourable, about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Put the milk chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth. Let cool.
- Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the melted milk chocolate and beat until combined. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Add the cocoa powder and vanilla, increase the mixer speed to medium high and beat until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Assemble the cake: Put 1 chocolate cake layer on a platter; spread 3/4 cup filling on top. Top with a vanilla cake layer and spread with another 3/4 cup filling. Repeat to make 4 layers, ending with a vanilla cake layer. Spread the remaining filling on top and refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes. Pour the ganache over the cake, letting it drip down the sides. Let set at room temperature before slicing, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat two 9-inch-round cake pans with cooking spray and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
- Whisk the cocoa powder and 1 1/2 cups boiling water in a medium bowl until smooth; set aside. Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl until combined. Add the eggs, vegetable oil, sour cream and vanilla and beat with a mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the cocoa mixture in a steady stream until just combined, then finish mixing with a rubber spatula. (The batter will be thin.)
- Divide the batter between the prepared pans and tap the pans against the counter to help the batter settle. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edge of the pans and turn the cakes out onto the racks to cool completely. Remove the parchment. Trim the tops of the cakes with a long serrated knife to make them level, if desired.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter two 9-inch-round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper; butter the parchment and dust the pans with flour, tapping out the excess.
- Whisk 3 cups flour, the baking powder and salt in a bowl until combined. Beat 2 sticks butter and the sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to medium; beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed. Beat in the vanilla. (The mixture may look separated at this point.)
- Mix 1/2 cup water with the cream in a liquid measuring cup or bowl. Beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the cream mixture, beginning and ending with flour, until just smooth.
- Divide the batter between the prepared pans. Bake until the cakes are lightly golden on top and the centers spring back when pressed, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edge of the pans and turn the cakes out onto the racks to cool completely. Remove the parchment. Trim the tops of the cakes with a long serrated knife to make them level, if desired.
BLACK AND WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
Steps:
- Dark Mousse: In a bowl over barely simmering water, melt the bittersweet chocolate. Heat the milk in a saucepan until almost simmering and whisk it into the melted chocolate. Fold the whipped cream into the hot chocolate mixture; it will be rather soupy. Let cool slightly and transfer to a pastry bag or lockable plastic bag. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- White Mousse: In a bowl over barely simmering water, melt the white chocolate. Heat the creme fraiche in a saucepan until almost simmering and whisk it into the melted chocolate. Fold the whipped cream into the hot chocolate mixture; it will be rather soupy. Let cool slightly and transfer to a pastry bag or lockable plastic bag. Refrigerate at least 1 hour. (The recipe can be made up to this point and kept refrigerated up to 2 days in advance.)
- Insert the piece of plastic across the center (perpendicular to the bottom) of a ramekin or chocolate cup, so it divides the interior in half. If using plastic bags for piping, cut a corner off of each one. Pipe dark chocolate mousse on one side of the plastic, then white on the other. Pull out the plastic, and repeat. Refrigerate the ramekins until ready to serve.
- When ready to serve, make chocolate curls by shaving milk chocolate into curls with a sturdy vegetable peeler, and don't worry if they break up into shards. Shards look nice, too. Remove the mousses from the refrigerator. If using collar molds, warm the metal with a hot, damp cloth and then lift off. Sprinkle the chocolate curls on top and serve.

Steps:
- There are FOUR layers to make:.
- BOTTOM LAYER (cake):.
- Bake according to directions on box using 2 round pans, then cool. Once cooled, use the cake from one pan as one layer (you do not need the second cake from the second pan. In other words, you only need half the box cake recipe). Place this round cake at the bottom of a CHEESECAKE PAN. Press it with your fingers and flatten the cake a little. This is the bottom layer out of four layers.
- SECOND LAYER (the chocolate mousse):.
- Melt chocolate and cream cheese together. Let cool. Soften gelatin with cold water for 1 minute, then add boiling water, stir until dissolved and clear. Let this cool while you start whipping the heavy cream and sugar. As cream starts to thicken, add gelatin. Continue to whip until stiff peaks form. Add 1/4 of the cream to the chocolate mixture and mix thoroughly. Then fold this into the remaining cream. Once you have it completed, spread this chocolate mousse onto the cake and refrigerate.
- THIRD LAYER (the custard):.
- Beat egg yolks until pale. Add sugar, flour, and gelatin, then beat until mixed. Bring cream and vanilla extract to a boil. Add a small amount of cream to egg mixture while stirring. Gradually add until all of the cream has been added and then pour entire mixture through a strainer into the pan. Continue to cook until custard begins to thicken. Cool slightly, then pour on top of the chocolate mousse layer and freeze while getting the fourth layer ready.
- FOURTH LAYER (the icing):.
- Please note: this makes a lot of icing so feel free to half this part of the recipe (I just happen to like a lot of icing on top). Bring butter and cream to a boil, pour over chocolate and let sit for 5 minutes. Stir until smooth. Let cool until it starts to thicken. Remove cake from freezer, remove the cheesecake pan collar, then pour some of the icing and use a spatula to spread it evenly across the top and sides of the cake. While this is still wet, put chocolate chips onto the side of the cake. Optional: Melt half a cup of white chocolate chips (in the microwave) and swirl into the icing if you want yours to look like the picture.
- Refrigerate the cake. Be sure to see the picture. Serve cold. Delicious!
- Enjoy! --Adrienne.
