Chocolate Mousse, plain and then “fanced up” as Johnathan says!
Recipe:
2 packages Lady Fingers – you can find them in the bakery section at Shaw’s
1 15oz Package Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
1 pint whipping cream
6 eggs, seperated
Melt the chocolate chips over a double boiler. Mix egg yolks into warm chocolate til smooth. Beat egg whites til stiff peaks form. Fold into chocolate mixture. Whip cream til thick and fold into chocolate/egg mixture. Arrange ladyfingers around the sides of a springform pan. Also cover the bottom of the pan tightly with ladyfingers. Pour mousse into prepared lady finger lined springform pans. Chill to set and serve.
This is the cake all of my kids request for their birthdays, and the only cake my brother will eat.
