Directions
*the Real* Black Tie Mousse Cake by Olive Garden, This is IT. The real deal. Very time consuming, but WORTH IT. Delicious and decadent, this is a four-layer chocolate mousse cake., Something was off about the cake. One of my layer messed it all up… I was disappointed ??. Even though my ingrediends were fresh, not sure what went missing, Might sound like a dumb question but how do you get the cake off of the springform base?

Please Note: This Makes a Lot of Icing So Feel Free to Half This Part of the Recipe I Just Happen to Like a Lot of Icing on Top. Bring Butter and Cream to a Boil, Pour Over Chocolate and Let Sit For 5 Minutes. Stir Until Smooth. Let Cool Until It Starts to Thicken. Remove Cake from Freezer, Remove the Cheesecake Pan Collar, Then Pour Some of the Icing and Use a Spatula to Spread It Evenly Across the Top and Sides of the Cake. While This Is Still Wet, Put Chocolate Chips Onto the Side of the Cake. Optional: Melt Half a Cup of White Chocolate Chips in the Microwave and Swirl Into the Icing If You Want Yours to Look Like the Picture. |
