Chocolate mousse for cake

Description

The recipe won't take much time. If you take a closer look, you'll see that this chocolate mousse for cake is so simple that I've slightly varied it by adding vanilla mousse, serving it as a separate dessert. The result was a light cake without a crust, similar to "bird's milk." But of course, once you learn how to make chocolate mousse for a cake, you can pour it over any pre-baked crust and refrigerate it to set. Good luck!
