It is probably called the devil’s cake because it so sinfully chocolaty! the chocolate devil cake is a chocolate mousse cake with a base of crushed chocolate biscuits mixed with roasted almonds and butter, topped with chocolate mousse and garnished with chocolate truffle. It’s a nice, rich, soft and gooey cake.

Ingredients


For The Base
12 dark chocolate biscuits
2 tbsp roasted almond (badam) slivers
3 1/2 tbsp melted butter

For The Chocolate Mousse
2 cups roughly chopped dark chocolate
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
1 3/4 cups beaten whipped cream
2 tbsp powder sugar
1 recipe chocolate truffle

For The Garnish
 edible coloured vermicelli (seviyan)

Method
For the base
  1. Open each dark chocolate biscuit and scrape and discard the middle creamy layer.
  2. Place the biscuits on a butter paper or rolling board and crush the biscuits to a coarse powder with the help of a rolling pin.
  3. Transfer the crushed biscuit powder to a bowl, add the almonds and butter and mix well.
  4. Spread and press the mixture into the base of a 175 mm. (7") loose bottomed cake tin and refrigerate for 10 minutes.

For the chocolate mousse
  1. Combine the chocolate and milk in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute. Remove from the microwave and mix gently.
  2. Strain the chocolate-milk mixture using a sieve. Allow to cool at room temperature.
  3. Add the vanilla essence, beaten whipped cream and sugar and fold gently. Keep aside.

How to proceed
  1. Pour the mousse mixture evenly over the prepared biscuit base and spread it evenly using a palate knife.
  2. Refrigerate for 1 hour or till the mousse sets.
  3. Pour the chocolate truffle on the mousse cake and spread it evenly using a palate knife.
  4. Refrigerate for another 15 minutes.
  5. Demould the mousse cake and garnish with coloured vermicelli.
  6. Cut into 6 equal wedges and serve chilled.

Handy tip:
  1. You can also melt the chocolate-milk mixture on a double boiler.
