    List of Ingredients




    1 pkg. (1-layer-size) Devil's Food cake mix
    1/3 cup chocolate ice-cream topping
    4 squares (4 ounces) semisweet chocolate
    2 Tbsp powdered sugar
    2 Tbsp coffee liqueur
    2 egg yolks
    1/2 cup whipping cream
    1 Tbsp chocolate ice-cream topping
    1/2 cup whipping cream
    Fresh raspberries (optional)

    Recipe



    Prepare mix and bake according to package directions. Cool 10 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely. Place on a serving platter. Spread cake with the 1/3 cup ice cream topping. Chill until needed.


    For mousse: In a small saucepan, melt semisweet chocolate over low heat; remove from heat. Stir in powdered sugar, liqueur, and egg yolks. Cook and stir over medium heat for 2 minutes or until mixture just coats a metal spoon. Remove from heat; cool completely.


    Beat the first 1/2 cup whipping cream with an electric mixer to soft peaks. Stir HALF of the chocolate mixture into the whipped cream. Fold in remaining chocolate. Cover; chill mixture just until it mounds. Spread onto cake within 1 inch of edge. Chill, covered, several hours.


    To serve, drizzle cake with the 1 tablespoon topping. Beat the remaining whipping cream to stiff peaks. Using a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip, pipe whipped cream around cake edge.

    Garnish with raspberries, if desired.

    Makes 12 servings.
