Michel Rostang's Double Chocolate Mousse Cake

[earnie]

I made Michel Rostang's Double Chocolate Cake recipe from Dorie's Greenspan's Around My French Table cookbook and found it easy and delicious.

Thanks so much.

Beautiful, Earnie! I made it, too...

...and I think I like your version with the uncooked mousse on top better! My family liked it, but I think they prefer other flourless chocolate cakes I've baked.

What kind of chocolate are you using? It looks pale to me.

Lizzy, your photo of Helene's Apple Cake is lovely! My cake wasn't as tall. I like the bigger pieces

of apple too. Nice work!

Bittersweet

It calls for bittersweet chocolate, but you could use semi-sweet and reduce the amount of sugar called for.

 

[lizzy]

I used semi-sweet...and it only called for 4 ounces

 

[lizzy]

Thank you, both!!!
