Frozen Chocolate Mousse Cake

Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 16 ounces dark chocolate, chopped (i used hershey's chocolate chips)
• 5 ounces unsalted butter
• 4 eggs
• 1 tablespoon caster sugar
• 1 tablespoon plain flour
• 16 ounces berries (i used strawberries)
• 1/3 cup icing sugar

Recipe

• 1 line an ungreased deep 20cm round cake pan w/greaseproof paper-do not grease paper.
• 2 melt combined chocolate and butter in heatproof bowl over hot water, or microwave.
• 3 cool to room temperature.
• 4 combine eggs and sugar in bowl, beat w/electric mixer until thick and creamy, fold in sifted flour.
• 5 then fold in chocolate mixture.
• 6 pour mixture into prepared pan, bake at 180°c/350°f/gas mark 4-for 20mins or until cake is crusty on top and soft in the centre.
• 7 leave cake to become cold in pan.
• 8 cover cake pan w/foil and freeze for several hours or overnight.
• 9 just before serving, place cake pan in hot water to loosen cake (for me this step wasn't necessary, i used foil instead of greaseproof paper to line my pan, and enough of it was hanging over for me to just cover the cake and freeze, which i just later pulled, and the cake came out w/it! no hot water dipping!) invert cake onto serving dish and fill centre w/extra fresh fruit if desired.
• 10 berry sauce: blend or process berries w/icing sugar until smooth, strain.
• 11 pour berry sauce over slices cut, and serve-- mmmm.
