Chocolate Mousse Cake
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Melt chocolate in microwave for 2 minutes on defrost. Beat yolks and 3/4 c. sugar til pale yellow and fluffy. Gradually stir in chocolate, butter and vanilla. Beat whites with lemon juice till soft peaks form. Add remaining 1/4 c. sugar (1 TBS. at a time). Continue beating till stiff but not dry. Gently fold whites into chocolate. Pour 3/4 of batter into 9" springform pan. Cover and refrigerate remaining batter. Bake cake 35 minutes. Cool completely. Cake will fall. Remove springform sides. Trim edges with a knife. Spread remaining batter over top of cake. Refrigerate overnight before serving. Debbie Dalin, Florida |
