Instructions
 

Prepare the Base

  • Choose a Base (Optional): If desired, prepare a cookie or brownie crust as the base. Press it into the bottom of a springform pan. Chill while preparing the layers.

Dark Chocolate Layer

  • Melt Chocolate: Place the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl and melt over a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals. Stir until smooth.
  • Prepare Gelatin: Dissolve 1 tsp gelatin in 2 tbsp warm water and let it bloom for 2-3 minutes. Stir into the melted chocolate.
  • Whip Cream: Beat 1 cup heavy whipping cream and 1 tbsp sugar until soft peaks form.
  • Combine: Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture until smooth.
  • Layer: Pour the dark chocolate mousse into the springform pan, smoothing the surface. Chill for 30 minutes to set.

Milk Chocolate Layer:

  • Repeat the same process as the dark chocolate layer with the milk chocolate, gelatin, cream, and sugar.
  • Pour the milk chocolate mousse over the set dark chocolate layer, smoothing the surface. Chill for another 30 minutes.

White Chocolate Layer:

  • Follow the same steps using the white chocolate, gelatin, cream, and sugar (optional, as white chocolate is naturally sweet).
  • Pour the white chocolate mousse over the set milk chocolate layer, smoothing the top.
  • Final Chill: Chill the entire cake in the refrigerator for at least 4-6 hours or overnight for best results.
