Chocolate Mousse

This lightly sweetened, chocolate laced mousse is perfect to put between layers of cake . Once you’ve “stuffed” the layers, be sure to refrigerate the cake to solidify the mousse. Then top off your cake with your favorite chocolate frosting ( I recommend Ganache)

Frosting/Icing

Chocolate Frosting

When I was a young girl, our neighbor, Helen Iverson, made the most memorable chocolate frosting I’ve ever had. It’s light and fluffy and luckily, she shared the recipe with me. It’s the perfect amount of frosting for a cake baked in a 9×13 inch pan. If you’re frosting a layer cake, double the recipe.
