I am just gonna say it. This Keto chocolate mousse cake is the total bomb! I have made a few variations of this cake and they all taste totally amazeballs! It is the right amount of dense cake and so soft fluffy mousse.
This pic above is of my Jaffa Mousse Cake with Unicorn Cheesecake injections and a “Chocolate Crackle” base. It was so good! It was for my 46th birthday would you believe. I wanted to make something a little silly and juvenile to look at, but with a mature palate. Oh an my “homage” to chocolate crackles (a real favourite of my childhood) are so incredibly good. Salty, chocolatey and crunchy.
Any way you choose to create your version of the Mousse Cake I have no doubt that you will truly love this recipe and make it many many times.
