FROZEN CHOCOLATE COOKIE CAKE

Steps:

• Line 1 (9-inch) cake pan with plastic wrap, with 3 inches overhanging. Spread softened ice cream into lined pan in a smooth, even layer. Freeze for 3 hours, or until frozen solid.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Butter and flour 2 (10-inch) round cake pans and set aside. In a stand mixer or with a hand mixer, beat cake mix, water, oil and eggs in a large mixing bowl on medium speed for 2 minutes, or until well blended. Using a spatula, divide batter between the 2 prepared cake pans. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cakes cool in pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of each pan to loosen cakes and remove from pans.
• While cakes are cooling, heat heavy cream in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat until bubbling around the edges. Remove pan from heat, add chocolate morsels, and stir with a whisk until smooth. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, until cool and slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Spread ganache on top of and around sides of both cake layers, keeping layers separate and not fitting together yet. Refrigerate entire cake for 1 hour, or until ganache is set.
• Place 1 cake layer, ganache side up, on a serving platter. Remove ice cream from pan, peel off plastic wrap, and place on top of cake layer. Place second cake layer on top of ice cream, ganache side up. Freeze until ready to serve, but let stand at room temperature 5 minutes before seving.

SINFUL CHOCOLATE MOUSSE DESSERT

Steps:

• For crust: combine crumbs and butter.
• Press on bottom and 2/3 up the sides of a 10 inch springform pan.
• Chill in freezer while making filling.
• For filling: Melt chocolate chips in the top half of a double boiler over simmering water.
• Let cool about 5 minutes.
• Add whole eggs, one at a time, beating well with each addition.
• (Chocolate will stiffen somewhat, just keep beating!) Add egg yolks and mix until thoroughly blended.
• Whip cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
• Beat egg white until stiff, but not dry.
• Stir about 1/2 c of the whipped cream and 1/2 c the beaten egg whites into the chocolate mixture, to "lighten" it.
• Fold in remaining cream and whites until completely incorporated.
• Pour into prepared crust and chill at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
• To garnish: Sprinkle unflavored gelatin onto remaining 1 c whipping cream to soften.
• Add 4 T powdered sugar and whip until firm.
• This whipped cream will hold up indefinitely.
• Garnish top of dessert with this.
• You can be fancy and pipe rosettes, or just "fluff" it around the edge of the mousse with a fork.
• A dusting of cocoa powder is a nice finishing touch.
• For a real "show stopper", melt about 4 oz chocolate chips and 3/4 t solid vegetable shortening together.
• Coat the underside of waxy leaves, such as camillas, refrigerate until firm.
• Peel off the leaves and place the chocolate leaves around the edge of the mousse.
