Chocolate Mousse Dome Cake

by:




If you want to create real drama and impress guests, make this cake in the shape of a dome. The dome is covered with slices of rolled cake which is filled with chocolate mousse. You can use any cake you like for the inside layers, but for the rolled layers you need a cake that's flexible and suitable for rolling, such as butter-enriched sponge cake.
