Chocolate Mousse Fraisier

salernos

It’s been quite a while since I’ve added anything here.  As with most everyone now, I have been able to spend more time baking although I have had to be careful because there is also a lack of eaters.   I’ve been used to making huge batches to take to work and even though perfectly willing, husband and I alone shouldn’t try to keep up.  I most often see pictures of something that looks really good and can’t resist. Plus . . . chocolate!  It was delicious and really pretty.  It did take some time so you need to plan ahead, but isn’t difficult. 

I basically followed this recipe from King Arthur Flour https://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/gesines-chocolate-and-strawberry-cream-puff-cake-recipe but I was a little lazy and skipped the cream puffs.  I recommend the recipe as it was pretty easy to follow and I will definitely make it again, maybe with raspberries.  I suppose that would make it not a Fraisier but I’ve never been one to follow a recipe exactly.

I was surprised that the cake recipe had no eggs and wasn’t sure what to expect but it came out very moist and chocolaty. I’m going to remember that if I ever run out of eggs and want to make a cake.  It made more mousse than would fit in the pan but we were able to overcome that calamity with a couple of spoons.
