Chocolate Cake & Cappuccino Ice Cream Mousse
HomeiraStyle Recipe
As I've noted before dessert is often the last thing on my mind when I plan my dinner experiences. I'm always looking for short cuts with great results, especially when it comes to sweets. Just because baking and desserts aren't among my favorites, whatever I do, must be as elegant and artful as the rest of my menu. This sweet short cut has a bold attitude and stunning visual presentation. If you have some extra chocolate cake, then you have the first ingredient on hand!
