Chocolate Mousse Cake
We were invited to a dinner party by a colleague of Jay's brother. I was volunteered to make dessert so I wanted to make something different that would be universally delicious. Seriously, who doesn't like chocolate?
No one. Thats who.
I used a recipe from the Pampered Chef recipe card collection I've had forever. I enjoyed the cake, but I'm not a fan of nuts so I think next time I would want to do a graham cracker crust, or something similar.
For the whipped cream I used Splenda as my sweetener and added a teaspoon of Cream of Tarter to ensure it stayed stiff for the trip to the house and through dinner. And it did, it even stayed stiff on the leftovers for the next couple of days.
