Categories     Cake

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened dark chocolate cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
1/2 cup milk
5 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 bag (12 ounce) semi-sweet chocolate morsels
1 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Spray two 9-inch cake pans with baking spray. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Set aside.
  • In a measuring cup, combine cooled coffee with milk*. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar for 5 minutes with an electric mixer. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Slowly add in dry ingredients and alternate with the coffee/milk mixture (about 3 additions of each).
  • Once all the ingredients are added, beat cake mixture for about 2-3 minutes until fluffy (scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed).
  • Divide cake batter into the two cake pans. Bake in oven for 25 minutes. Remove and allow to cool about 10 minutes in pan. Invert on a wire rack and cool completely.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the flour with milk, whisking until lumps removed. Turn on medium heat and continue to whisk until mixture becomes thick, like a pudding.
  • Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Cool completely.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine butter and sugar, beat until light and fluffy (about 4 minutes). Slowly add in the COOLED milk mixture, beating until combined. It may curdle slightly in the beginning, that's okay, keep beating until it becomes the texture of whipped cream!
  • In a glass bowl (safe for the microwave) combine semi sweet chocolate with heavy cream. Heat for 1 minute. Remove from microwave and stir until smooth (you may need to heat for another 15-30 seconds). Do not over heat. Set aside while you begin to assemble the cake.
  • Place first layer of cooled cake on a cake plate. Top it with ALL of the cream filling. Add the second layer of cake on top.
  • Slowly pour the ganache over the cake, using an offset spatula to help cover the top and sides. Allow to set, about 15 minutes. Slice and enjoy!

DING DONG MOUSSE

A positively lethal recipe from Hostess to satisfy any sweet tooth. I used Cool Whip for the "whipped cream" and a 4.37 oz box of Chocolate Caramel Chip Jell-o instant pudding. Other flavors of pudding would probably work well too. Refrigeration time is not included, so make this at least one hour ahead. With a little supervision, this would be a wonderful dessert that your kids could make.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
  • Make sure the heavy cream is very cold before whipping it. This will help it whip up quickly and smoothly.
  • Don't overbeat the whipped cream. It should be stiff but still fluffy.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
  • Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help it set and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

Ding Dong Mousse is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich chocolate flavor and creamy texture, it is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give Ding Dong Mousse a try.
