Chocolate Mousse Cupcakes

Chocolate Mousse Cupcakes


 


I have a good friend that is a bonafide chocoholic ( I guess like most women are) and I was asking he what would be her dream cupcakes. Something rich, decadent and chock full of well chocolate
So I came up with a dark chocolate cupcake, filled with a dark chocolate mousse and topped with a dark chocolate italan meringue buttercream. These are TO DIE FOR yummy.  I do have recipes and will come back to post later. So for now pics. The cake recipe is from Warren Brown's book, Cakelove. It's his chocolate buttercake. I used dark chocolate cocoa for the regular cocoa powder in his recipe. The mousse is a non egg mousse and the frosting is my normal recipe with melted and cooled 70% cacao bittersweet chocolate added. 


Started off with dark brown liners - white just wouldn't do for the FULL chocolate effect
  


I actually took a pic of my mise en place. ha ha



Fresh out of the oven - smelled amazing


The yummy dark chocolate mousse - which got a LOT darker when chilled
Filled cupcakes. I used my bismark tip to fill. Easier with a mousse to fill with a pastry bag and tip than with my apple corer method


Frosted yumminess


And the middle. I normally cut in half to take the pic not this time. Notice teeth marks. ha ha


 
You can barely see the mousse filling. But its there and SO good.
