Velvety chocolate mousse cake

Above: Chocolate mousse and sponge cake on hazelnut crunch crust

As you can see this cake consists of three parts; the first layer is chocolate mousse which is soft like velvet, the second is chocolate sponge cake sprinkled with Cointreau (orange flavor liquor), the bottom is hazelnut crunch crust that is crisp and full of toasty aroma of roast nuts. They go together oh-so-very-well. A fan of mousse cake knows that this cold cake must be refrigerated at all time. To contradict its type of being 'cold cake', it has been selling like
'hot cakes' since I had it on my menu.
