Brownie cake with chocolate mousse – tips

I made this brownie with dark chocolate mousse for my husband’s work and the cake received only praise.

That’s why I’m rushing to share the recipe with you :)

I made the cake just before the holidays, but I ran out of time to write the recipe here.

It’s a bit of a shame, because this brownie would be perfect as a chocolate mazurek :)

Here we have a simple chocolate base – made without baking powder (as in brownie) and an extremely delicious and rich chocolate mousse.

For the chocolate mousse itself, I used dark chocolate and didn’t add any sugar.

For some time now, I’ve loved chocolate creams made with dark chocolate, softened only with heavy cream.

Such a mousse is very intense in flavor, but not bitter.

Heavy cream softens the strong flavor, and the mousse gains incredible depth.

If you like dark chocolate, you will also love such a chocolate mousse – be sure to try it!

The holidays are over, but you can make this chocolate cake with chocolate mousse for the weekend.

It will be perfect with coffee :)

How to make brownie with chocolate mousse?

First, prepare the brownie.

I made it entirely in a pot.

First, I melted butter in it, then added the remaining ingredients and mixed with a spoon.

This is probably the simplest and fastest brownie recipe :)

Once the cake was baked and cooled, I prepared the chocolate mousse.

I melted the chocolate for the mousse in a double boiler and then mixed it with whipped heavy cream.

If you prefer sweeter cakes, you can use milk chocolate instead of dark.

Then add a little more gelatin to the mousse – about 1.5 teaspoons.

I hope you like this brownie with chocolate mousse recipe and make use of it.

Also check out my other chocolate cake recipes.

I recommend, among others, brownie with cream cheese or brownie with Nutella.

You will also find many delicious chocolate recipes in my chocolate e-book – I highly recommend it!
