Yogurt Mousse Chocolate Cake with Raspberry Jam 。 Mocha Roll





I'm so exciting this morning, the yogurt mousse I use in the cake is so delicious and the best thing is that it can't be any easier to make! I've never expected that the texure could be this creamy like adding heavy cream in it. I only use Greek style yogurt, maple syrup and galetin, and it came out fantastic.

The only thing I'm not satisfied with is the color of raspberry jam.../__\ It almost looks like the color of pig's liver.

Since I only left a little bit yogurt, I make another cake, mocha roll, which was just soaked in the rum and filled with coffee butter cream I left for making opera cake last time, then roll it up...simple but better than some other cakes that is complicated to make.

I use my favorite recipe of chocolate cake with a little modified to be the cake layer...I tried to make the chocolate cake with hazelnuts flavor by using Nutella, but I was failed. The flavor of whole cake is dominated by Valrhona chocolate(85%:11g//71%:19g), which is also good to taste but I couldn't feel any NutellaQQ...
And the chocolate cake this time is not that sweet, so it is perfact to taste along with my sweet coffee butter cream and raspberry jam!
