Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter the bottom and sides of an eight-inch springform pan.
- Scatter the walnuts on a baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake until lightly browned and crisp, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Let cool. Set aside eight of the largest pieces for garnish. Chop the rest into small pieces.
- Put the chocolate squares and butter in a saucepan and set the saucepan in a skillet of simmering water. Keep the water at a simmer. Stir the chocolate and butter until the chocolate squares are melted.
- Whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat until the mixture is light and lemon-colored.
- Add the chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, stirring to blend well.
- Beat the egg whites until stiff but not brittle. If the whites are too stiffly beaten, they will not fold in properly.
- Add half the egg whites to the chocolate mixture, and beat. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the remaining whites and the chopped walnut pieces.
- Pour three-quarters of the mixture into the prepared pan. Reserve the remaining chocolate mixture for the frosting.
- Place the pan in the oven and bake for 50 minutes to one hour. The cake is done when a knife, straw, toothpick or cake tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
- When the cake is done, transfer it to a rack. Let it stand about 10 minutes. Remove the rim from the springform pan. Cool the cake thoroughly.
- Spoon a portion of the reserved chocolate mixture around the sides of the cake, smoothing it over. Build it up slightly around the top of the cake. Add the remaining mixture to the top of the cake and smooth it over.
- Hold a small sieve over the cake and spoon the cocoa into it. Sprinkle it evenly over the top of the cake. Chill briefly.
- Add the confectioners' sugar to the sieve and sprinkle it over the cocoa. Decorate with the reserved walnuts and the violets.

Steps:
- Line three 9-inch cake pans with foil, leaving about a 2-inch overhang on all sides. (See Cook's Note.)
- Add the cookies and sugar to the bowl of a food processor and pulse to fine crumbs. Drizzle in the butter and pulse until the crumbs are completely coated and moistened with the butter. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom of one of the prepared pans; set aside.
- Add the dark chocolate pudding mix to a large bowl and whisk in 2 cups of the heavy cream. Continue whisking until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. (It's fine if there are still a few granules in the mix; they will dissolve once set.) Pour the pudding mixture on top of the crumb crust and spread until even. Freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
- Meanwhile, clean out the bowl, add the chocolate pudding mix and whisk in 2 cups heavy cream. Continue whisking until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Pour into another prepared pan and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
- Clean out the bowl again, then add the white chocolate pudding mix and whisk in the remaining 2 cups heavy cream. Continue whisking until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Pour into the third prepared pan and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
- When all 3 layers are completely frozen, use the foil to lift out the cakes from the pans. Place the dark chocolate layer crumb-side down on a cake stand or large plate. Top with the chocolate layer and then with the white chocolate layer. Refrigerate until the layers are thawed and the cake is set, about 8 hours and up to overnight.
- Before serving, run a hot knife around the outside of the cake to smooth it and sprinkle the top with the chocolate shavings.
CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE
Steps:
- Grated chocolate, cookie crumbs or chopped nuts for coating the sides of cake, if desired
- Cake:
- Lightly coat the insides of 3 9 by 1 1/2-inch cake pans with melted butter. Line each pan with parchment paper, then lightly coat the parchment paper with more melted butter. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Heat 1-inch of water in the bottom half of a double boiler over medium heat. Place remaining butter and 8 ounces semisweet chocolate in the top half of the double boiler. Tightly cover the top with film wrap. Allow to heat for 10 to 12 minutes. remove from the heat, stir until smooth, and hold at room temperature.
- Place the egg yolks and 3/4 cup sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle. Beat on high until slightly thickened and lemon-colored, about 4 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat on high for an additional 2 minutes.
- While the egg yolks are beating, whisk 4 egg whites in a large stainless steel bowl until stiff, but not dry, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Using a rubber spatula, fold the melted chocolate mixture into the beaten egg yolk mixture. Add a quarter of the beaten egg whites and stir to incorporate, then gently fold in the remaining egg whites.
- Divide the batter between the prepared pans, spreading evenly, and bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 to 30 minutes. Remove the cakes from the oven and allow to cool in the pans for 15 minutes. (During baking, the surface of the cakes will form a crust; this crust will normally collapse when the cakes are removed from the oven.) Invert the cakes onto cake circles, remove the parchment paper, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Filling:
- To prepare the dark chocolate cream, heat 1-inch of water in the bottom half of a double boiler over medium heat. Place the semisweet chocolate in the top half of the double boiler. Tightly cover the top with film wrap and allow to heat for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir until smooth. Transfer the melted chocolate to a stainless steel bowl and set aside until needed. Place heavy cream and sugar in the well-chilled bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a well-chilled balloon whip. Whisk on high until stiff peaks form, about 1 1/2 minutes. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Use a hand whisk to combine 1/4 of the whipped cream into the melted chocolate until smooth and completely incorporated. Add the combined whipped cream and chocolate to the remaining whipped cream and use a rubber spatula to fold together.
- Ganache:
- Heat the heavy cream and the butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium high heat. Bring to a boil. Place the semisweet chocolate in a 3-quart stainless steel bowl. Pour the boiling cream over the chocolate and allow to stand for 5 minutes. Stir until smooth. Chill 1 cup of ganache for at least 1 hour. Remaining ganache should be at room temperature
- To assemble cake:
- Arrange one of the cake layers in a 9-inch springform pan, evenly spread half the filling over the cake and top with the second layer. Add remaining filling and top with the remaining cake layer. Chill 2 hours. Transfer chilled cup of ganache to pastry bag fitted with a star tip. Remove cake from springform pan and coat sides and top with room temperature ganache. Using chilled ganache, decoratively pipe stars on top of cake. If desired, coat sides of cake with grated chocolate, cookie crumbs of chopped nuts.

BAKED CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE
My mother made this chocolate mousse cake for me once or twice a year if I was fortunate, and it was the cake I requested for my birthday every year. If you are looking for a quick recipe, you will want to skip this one, but if you have the time it's well worth the investment. The chocolate lover will appreciate its light texture, but the highlight is certainly the rich chocolate flavor. I hope you give it a try, and enjoy it as much as I have over the years.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Mix boiling water and cocoa powder for cake together in a small mixing bowl until smooth. Let cool, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, sift flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, pour in oil, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and cooled cocoa mixture. Mix using a wooden spoon just until smooth.
- Sprinkle cream of tartar over egg whites in a large mixing bowl. Beat using an electric mixer on high speed until very stiff peaks form. Pour cake batter over egg white mixture and fold gently using a whisk with an under-and-over motion; be sure not to overmix, but to also fully incorporate ingredients. Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cake cool in the pan for 1 1/2 hours. Loosen with a spatula and transfer to a plate.

THE ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE
Not sure where I got this recipe. Its been in my cookbook for a long time. I made this for my DH and myself for this years Happy Hearts Day..and wow, were our hearts happy when we bit into this cake. This is a flour less dessert which is good because I'm on a low carb diet...however, the fat in this is quite substantial, so don't eat too much at once. I don't eat dairy so substituted non-dairy ingredients, and it turned out so tasty. I also added a dollop of non-dairy whipped cream. Note: I didn't include the cooling times in this recipe.

Steps:
- For the Cake:.
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Wrap the outside of an 8-inch spring form pan with a double layer of tin foil to prevent seepage.
- Butter the inside of the pan and cut a circle out of parchment paper the size of the bottom of the pan. Place it in and butter it too.
- Combine the chocolate and butter in a double boiler over simmering water (don't let it touch the bottom of the pot, it will scorch the chocolate). Stir until the chocolate and butter are smooth and lump free. You can also microwave the mixture on 100% or high. Make sure you stop and stir the mixture every 15 seconds; remove the chocolate when all the lumps are gone.
- Put the eggs in a large mixer bowl over simmering water and stir constantly until warm to the touch, about 3 minutes; remove from the heat. If using an electric mixer, beat the eggs until triple in volume and form soft peaks when the beater is lifted, 5-8 minutes. To ensure maximum volume when using a hand mixer continue to beat the eggs over simmering water until hot to the touch, about 5 minutes, then removed from heat until cool.
- Fold half the eggs into the melted chocolate until partially incorporated. Add the remaining eggs and fold until just blended but no streaks remain.
- Pour at once into your prepared spring form pan and smooth the surface with an off-set spatula. Place the spring form pan into a larger pan and carefully pour boiling water into the larger pan until the water is about 2/3 of the way up the side of the spring form pan. Don't get any water on the chocolate! This method of a water bath is often referred to as a "bain marie".
- Bake the cake for 5 minutes. Then cover the spring form pan loosely with lightly buttered tin foil and bake for 10 more minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for 45 minutes; then cover it again and refrigerate it for at least 3 hours.
- To remove the cake from the spring form pan: Run a small spatula around the edge of the spring form until the sides of the cake come loose. Place the cake on a round plate that the cake fits nicely on and invert the plate and open the spring form pan up and remove from the cake. Remove the bottom metal part of the spring form pan and the parchment. Cover it again with tin foil and leave for another 6 hours or over night. It needs to be really chilled to set.
- If you are making the Ganache, set the cake on a metal rack and put wax paper under the cake (tuck strips). Pour the tepid glaze over the center of the cake and allow the ganache to dribble down the sides of the cake.
- Using a metal off set spatula run it around the top of the cake to ensure that the g.
- Ganache won't be too thick on the top. Patch any bare spots at this point. If any air holes occur, use a pin to break them. Remove the strips of wax paper from under the cake and let this stand undisturbed for 2-3 hours at room temperature, or 30 minutes in the fridge.
- Bon Appetit!

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE
From Family Circle magazine - have no idea when as I just cut out the recipe card with the picture. This is made in a jelly-roll pan. I have made this recipe again and used just 2 cups of flour (instead of the original 3 cups and the cake was flat so I'd suggest adjusting to 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 cups of flour) It should have the normal consistency of a cake batter when finished mixing.
