You Will Need:
For the crust:
• 2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the mousse layers:
• 1 cup dark chocolate, melted
• 1 cup milk chocolate, melted
• 1 cup white chocolate, melted
• 3 cups heavy cream, divided
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for each mousse layer)
For the ganache:
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate, chopped
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Crust:
Mix chocolate cookie crumbs with melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan and refrigerate.
2. Make the Chocolate Mousse Layers:
For each mousse layer, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with 1/4 cup powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Fold in the melted chocolate (one flavor for each layer). Repeat this process for the dark, milk, and white chocolate layers.
3. Assemble the Cake:
Spread the dark chocolate mousse evenly over the crust, followed by the milk chocolate mousse, and then the white chocolate mousse. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours, or until fully set.
4. Prepare the Ganache:
Heat the heavy cream and pour over the chopped dark chocolate. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth. Pour the ganache over the top of the set mousse cake.
5. Decorate and Serve:
Garnish with fresh raspberries, chocolate swirls, and mint leaves for an elegant touch.
