The cake is worth dying for – a fluffy, cocoa sponge cake filled with velvety fudge filling and delicate chocolate mousse.. Each layer has its own task – the sponge cake is light and elastic, the fudge layer is sweet and creamy, and the mousse gives the whole thing elegance and more flavor. The top of the dessert is also decorated with shiny chocolate icing (or fudge icing), which completes the composition. The whole thing turns out amazing, soft and literally melts in your mouth. This is a dessert that tastes as good as it looks. Although it is not low-calorie, it is worth sinning from time to time and enjoying it.
Ingredients:
For the cake:
- 7 eggs,
- 170 g of wheat flour,
- 220 g sugar,
- 50 g kakao,
- a teaspoon of baking powder,
- a pinch of salt.
For the chocolate mousse:
- 250 g of cream 30%,
- 100 g of dark chocolate,
- 80 g of milk chocolate,
- 130 g mascarpone.
Additionally:
- a can of fudge mass (approx. 450g).
How to do it:
1. Start by preparing the sponge cake. Separate the egg whites from the yolks, add a little salt and start mixing at high speed. When they start to get stiff, add sugar slowly. Beat until the mixture becomes thick and shiny. Add the yolks to the whites and mix briefly.
2. Sift the flour with baking powder and cocoa. Gently mix with a spoon together with the egg whites and yolks.
3. Carefully pour the dough into a baking tin lined with baking paper. Place in the oven preheated to 170 degrees Celsius and bake for about 40 minutes until the so-called dry stick. Set aside to cool completely.
4. Now it’s time to prepare the chocolate mousse. Pour the cream into the pot, heat it over low heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to minimum or set aside. Add chopped milk and dark chocolate. Mix everything until the consistency is uniform. Put in the fridge for a few hours.
5. After a few hours, mix the mixture, add cold mascarpone and beat briefly at high speed. The chocolate mousse should be thick and creamy.
6. Divide the sponge cake into two or three partsat your discretion. Fill it with fudge filling and chocolate mousse.
7. Decorate the top with an additional portion of fudge filling or chocolate icing.
