Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped strawberries
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped strawberries
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix to combine.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until everything is well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before assembling.
While the cake is baking, prepare the chocolate mousse. In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it comes to a simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Let cool to room temperature.
In a large bowl, beat the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add the cocoa powder and mix until well combined. Add the vanilla extract and mix to combine.
In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gradually fold the chocolate mixture into the butter mixture until well combined. Then fold in the whipped cream until everything is well mixed.
Once the cake has cooled, cut it in half horizontally. Place the bottom half of the cake on a serving plate, then spread a layer of the chocolate mousse on top. Add a layer of chopped strawberries on top of the mousse, then top with the other half of the cake.
Spread another layer of chocolate mousse on top of the cake and smooth it out evenly. Top with more chopped strawberries and drizzle with melted chocolate if desired.
