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.

Steps:
- For cake, preheat oven to 350 °F and grease and line a 9-inch spring form pan with parchment paper.
- Beat butter and sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in vanilla and add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, sift flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add alternately with butter milk, starting and ending with flour mixture, and blending gently but well after each addition.
- Scrape batter into prepared pan, tap to pop any hidden air bubbles and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until a tester inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool for 20 minutes, then remove from pan to cool completely.
- Wash, grease and a re-line pan with parchment paper. Once cake is cooled, return to pan.
- For mousse, purée raspberries and strain - purée should measure to 2/3 cup (reserve any extra and sweeten lightly, for a coulis to serve with cake). Pour cold water over gelatin and stir. Whisk eggs, sugar and lemon juice over a pot of simmering water, until fluffy and warm. Remove from heat and stir in gelatin, whisking until melted. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Whip cream to medium peak and fold in egg mixture, gently but quickly and raspberry purée. Pour over cake in springform pan and chill for at least 4 hours.To serve, remove ring from pan and gently pull away parchment paper from side of cake. Top with a few fresh berries and serve.
CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY MOUSSE CAKE
This is a very elegant cake for a special occasion which I found years ago in Canadian Living magazine. It looks complicated but is actually quite easy to make. It can be served as is or with a raspberry coulis.

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.
CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY MOUSSE TRUFFLE CAKE, RASPBERRY-CASSIS SAUCE
This recipe is the winner, hands down! Just in case you want to know what it is that I'm saying -- this is the dessert that my friend Judy chose for her very elegant dinner party. This is not easy at all! It's very involved but it is so worth it! I can't begin to tell you; takes 3 hours plus baking, cooling and chilling times. Allow the truffle cake to chill overnight before serving. I am posting this for safe keeping. Can be made up to four days ahead of time.

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE
I love chocolate cakes (so does my hips......)This cake is rather rich, slightly decadent but sooooo yummy. Any berry can be used, I mostly make the sauce from a mixture of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. As it's flourless I sometimes make it for Passover if we've had a light dinner.
