CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY-MOUSSE CANDY CAKE
Inspired by candies from a box of chocolates, this cake makes a decadent Valentine's Day treat. Velvety raspberry mousse stands in stark contrast to the dark chocolate cake, which is enrobed in a snowy white chocolate ganache.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter two 8-inch round cake pans, line the bottoms with parchment paper, butter the parchment and dust with flour, tapping out excess.
- Whisk the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl. Whisk the melted butter, buttermilk, egg, vanilla and 1/2 cup water together in another bowl until smooth. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Divide the batter between the prepared cake pans, smoothing the tops. Bake, rotating the pans halfway through cooking, until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean, about 25 minutes.
- Transfer the cakes to a rack and let cool 15 minutes. Invert the cakes on the rack, discard the parchment paper then flip the cakes right-side-up again. Move the rack with the cakes over a baking sheet and let the cakes cool completely.
- Make the raspberry mousse: In a small saucepan, mash the raspberries with the sugar and salt and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring often, until thickened and jammy, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, press the raspberry mixture through a sieve into the bowl of a food processor and let cool completely.
- Combine the gelatin with 1 tablespoon cold water in a small bowl and let stand for 5 minutes to soften. Heat the gelatin in the microwave until it melts completely, about 10 seconds, stirring to dissolve. Add the gelatin mixture, cream cheese and sour cream to the food processor and process until smooth. Scrape the mixture into a bowl and refrigerate, checking every 5 minutes, until the mousse is just set enough to spread, 5 to 15 minutes. (Do not let the mousse firm up too much.)
- Place one cake layer on a cake stand and pile the raspberry mousse in the center, spreading it in a thick layer almost to the edge. Top with the remaining cake, aligning the layers directly on top of each other so the cake does not lean. Refrigerate the assembled cake for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the chocolate ganache: Bring the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan then remove from heat. Add the chocolate, shaking the pan gently to submerge it. Allow the pan to stand, off the heat, for 3 minutes to melt the chocolate. Whisk the ganache smooth, then refrigerate until it is just thick enough to spread (like mayonnaise), about 5 minutes. (Do not let the ganache harden too much.)
- Stir the ganache again and scoop it on top of the cake, spreading it over the top and sides. Refrigerate the cake until the ganache is set, at least 2 hours or overnight.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease two 9- or 8-inch round cake pans, or spray with baking spray with flour.
- Make and bake cake as directed on box for 8- or 9-inch round cake pans. Cool in pans 10 minutes. Remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in medium microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of the whipping cream uncovered on High 45 to 60 seconds; stir until smooth and melted. Refrigerate 15 to 30 minutes or until cool.
- In large bowl, beat remaining 1 cup whipping cream and the powdered sugar with electric mixer on high speed until mixture starts to thicken. Add melted chocolate. Beat until stiff peaks form (do not overbeat or mixture will begin to look curdled).
- On serving plate, place 1 cake layer, rounded side down. Spread raspberry jam over cake layer. Spread 1/2-inch-thick layer of chocolate mixture over jam. Cut 1/2 cup of the raspberries in half; press into chocolate mixture. Top with other cake layer, rounded side up; press lightly. Frost side and top of cake with remaining chocolate mixture. Refrigerate about 1 hour or until firm. Let stand at room temperature about 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with remaining raspberries and candies. Sprinkle with cocoa. Store loosely covered in refrigerator.

Steps:
- For the base, melt the chocolate with the butter and golden syrup in a bowl over barely simmer watering or on a low heat in the microwave.
- Put the biscuits in a bag and crush with a rolling pin until they reach a crumb consistency. Combine the two and spread over the base of a 23cm springform tin. Refrigerate for about an hour to set.
- For the mousse, melt the remaining plain chocolate and the milk chocolate together in the same way and allow to cool until lukewarm. Using an electric beater, whisk the eggs whites in one bowl to stiff peaks. Softly whip the whipping cream in another bowl until thickened but not as far as soft peaks.
- Stir the egg yolks into the chocolate, then beat the cream into the mixture - a balloon whisk is good for this. Work quickly if the chocolate looks like it might be becoming grainy. Gently fold in the eggs whites with a whisk, spread the mixture over the biscuit base and return to the fridge overnight.
- Release from the tin and decorate with concentric circles of raspberries and serve.

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE WITH RASPBERRIES
Steps:
- This unusual cake may be made in advance -- make sure to bring it to room temperature before serving with whipped cream and a few raspberries Preheat the oven to 325 degrees and set a rack in the middle level. Butter an 8-inch round pan and line the bottom with a disk of parchment or waxed paper cut to fit. Butter the paper. Chop the chocolate finely and set it aside. Combine the sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil over low heat, stirring occasionally to make sure all the sugar crystals dissolve. Remove the syrup from the heat and stir in the butter and chocolate; allow to stand 5 minutes. Whisk smooth. Whisk liqueur and eggs, one at a time, into the chocolate mixture, being careful not to over mix. Pour the batter into the pan and place the pan in a small roasting pan covered with one inch of warm water. Bake about 45 minutes, until set and slightly dry on the surface. Cool to room temperature in the pan and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate dessert in pan. To unmold, run a knife between the dessert and the pan and pass the bottom of the pan over the heat. Invert to a platter. To finish, whip the cream with the sugar until it holds a soft peak. Spread the whipped cream on the top of the dessert. Decorate the top with the raspberries.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
- Butter two half-cup ramekins or molds. Line the bottoms of the molds with circles of wax paper and butter the paper.
- Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over hot, barely simmering water, making sure not to let the pan touch the water. Set aside.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until smoothly blended. (Although this can be done with a food processor or a mixer, it is better to do it by hand, because the quantity is so small.) Beat in the egg yolk, and stir in the raspberry preserves, the eau de vie and the melted chocolate. Stir in the flour.
- Beat the egg white until it holds a peak but still has a creamy quality. Stir a little of the egg white into the chocolate mixture to lighten the batter, then fold the remaining egg white into the chocolate mixture.
- Divide the batter between the two prepared molds. Place the molds in a baking dish that will accommodate both comfortably and pour enough boiling water into the baking dish to come halfway up the sides of the molds. Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 40 minutes.
- Remove the baking dish from the oven and allow the molds to cool in the water.
- Set aside one-quarter cup of the raspberries. Press the rest through a sieve to remove the seeds. If desired, sweeten the sauce to taste with the superfine granulated sugar.
- When ready to serve, unmold the cakes by running a knife around the inside of each mold, then inverting the cakes onto individual plates. (For the picnic, it is best to transport the cakes in their molds.) Peel off the wax paper.
- Surround each cake with a pool of the sauce and scatter the reserved fresh raspberries in it.
