Ingredients for the Cake:

  • 400g of good quality chocolate
  • 125g of unsalted butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour

Ingredients for Coffee Cream:

  • 200g of mascarpone
  • 1 tablespoon of ground coffee
  • 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar

Preparation method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 200ºC and line a springform pan with parchment paper. Grease with butter and set aside.
  2. Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. In a bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar using an electric mixer for 8-10 minutes, until tripled in volume and the mixture is very thick.
  4. Gently incorporate the flour into the egg mixture, followed by the melted chocolate.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 12 minutes.
  6. Remove the cake from the oven and run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen it. Remove the ring from the pan and place the cake in the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour (this step is essential to ensure a mousse-like texture).

Preparation of Coffee Cream:

  1. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and beat well until you obtain a smooth and creamy batter.

Serving Tips:

Serve the chocolate mousse cake with coffee cream for an extra touch of flavor, or, if you prefer something lighter, accompany it with Greek yogurt .
