Ingredients
2 x 350 g packets frozen chocolate cake, thawed slightly
1 cup thick caramel (dulce de leche), plus extra to serve
1 cup milk
70 g sachet chocolate mousse mix
300 ml thickened cream
1/3 cup chocolate-coated almonds, coarsely chopped
Instructions
- Unwrap the frozen chocolate cakes and let them thaw slightly. Cut each cake in half horizontally using a serrated knife.
- Place the iced half of one cake into a 20 cm square baking dish. Use about two-thirds of the cake base to fill any gaps, covering the bottom completely.
- Spoon the caramel over the cake base and spread evenly with the back of a spoon.
- In a separate bowl, combine the milk and chocolate mousse mix according to the packet directions. Spread the prepared mousse over the caramel layer and smooth the surface.
- Chill in the fridge for 1 hour or until the mousse sets.
- Place the remaining iced cake half (iced side up) over the mousse layer, using two-thirds of the remaining base to fill any gaps.
- Whip the thickened cream with electric beaters until firm peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the top layer of cake.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight until the layers are set.
- Before serving, sprinkle chopped chocolate-coated almonds over the top and drizzle with extra caramel.
Notes
Make ahead the night before for best texture and flavor.
Use homemade chocolate cake instead of store-bought if preferred.
Swap chocolate mousse mix for caramel or coffee mousse for a twist.
Add a layer of crushed biscuits or nuts for extra crunch.
Do not freeze—best served chilled from the fridge.
Use whipped topping instead of cream for a quicker version.
Dip your knife in hot water for clean, neat slices.
