Yield Makes 16 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups plain flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup melted butter
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
3 (4 oz.) bars sweet dark baking chocolate
1 (1/4 oz.) envelope unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup Kahlua
3 3/4 cups chilled whipping cream
1 tablespoon superfine sugar

Steps:

  • Place first 4 ingredients and 1/2 teaspoon salt in mixing bowl; add melted butter and mix at medium speed for one minute. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla and pecans. Coat a 9 inch x 3 inch round spring form pan with cooking spray. Spread batter over bottom and place in preheated oven. Bake at 350 degrees 20-25 minutes or until done. Set aside to cool. Reserve half of one bar of the baking chocolate for making chocolate curl garnish. Break remaining chocolate into small pieces and melt in double boiler over hot, not boiling, water, stirring occasionally until smooth; remove from heat and set aside to cool. Sprinkle gelatin over Kahlua. Let stand 5 minutes or until gelatin is softened. Microwave on high, stirring in 10-second intervals, until gelatin is dissolved; cool. Place chilled whipping cream and remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt in mixing bowl and beat at high speed until soft peaks form and cream does not move when bowl is tilted. Combine one cup of the whipped cream with 1 tablespoon superfine sugar; place in refrigerator for topping. To the remaining whipped cream, gently stir in cooled melted chocolate. Next, fold in the cooled Kahlua mixture; spread over cake in spring form pan. Refrigerate 2 hours or until set. Spread mousse layer with chilled cup of sweetened whipped cream. For chocolate curls, use a vegetable peeler to shave remaining chocolate into curls and arrange curls on top of cake. Remove sides of pan from bottom and keep chilled until serving time.

The cake was a bit dry. I think I should have used a different chocolate cake recipe.

I had some trouble getting the mousse filling to set properly. I think I might have overbeaten it.

This cake was a bit too rich for my taste. I think it would be better with a lighter mousse filling.

I'm not a big fan of Kahlua, but I still enjoyed this cake. The chocolate flavor is very dominant and the mousse filling is really light and fluffy.
