Ingredients

For the cake:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

For the mousse:

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks

Instructions

To make the cake:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add to the creamed mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Fold in the chocolate chips. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

To make the mousse:

  1. In a medium bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
  2. Gently fold in the chocolate chunks. Set aside.

To assemble the cake:

  1. Cut the cooled cake into two layers. Place one layer on a cake board or serving plate.
  2. Spread 1/2 of the mousse over the cake layer. Top with remaining cake layer.
  3. Spread remaining mousse over the top and sides of the cake. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
