Instructions

1 Start with two eggs and a 1/4 cup of C&H granulated sugar. Whisk them until
light and frothy.
2 Add ⅓ cups of flour, one and ½ tablespoons of cocoa powder, baking powder, and
salt to the whisked eggs. Gently fold until the dry ingredients are just
combined. Place the cake in the oven.
3 Boil 1 cup of heavy cream and add it to a 1/4 cup of chocolate in a bowl and
whisk until you get a shiny smooth ganache. Add the bloomed gelatin separately
and mix with some water.
4 Whisk up one and a 1/2 cups of heavy cream until it reaches stiff and add to the
shiny ganache. Gently fold until you have a light chocolate mousse.
5 Use 200 grams of white chocolate and half a cup of heavy cream and add three
teaspoons of coffee/mocha and the bloomed gelatin separately.
6 Whip up one and ½ cups of cream and fold it into the ganache. The pieces are now
ready for assembly.
7 Brush the cake with simple syrup and wrap it around an acetate collar. Pour in
all of that chocolate mousse and spread it out as neatly as you can.
8 Put this in the fridge until the mousse feels set on top, and then carefully
layer on the mocha/coffee mousse.
9 Refrigerate overnight until the cake is fully set and carefully take off the
acetate, decorate the cake with a simple chocolate glaze, and you are ready to
dive in.
