Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Dark chocolate mousse filling; Rich chocolate buttercream

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    One of the best cakes I've ever made. The cake itself was moist, flavorful, and not too heavy. The icing was flavorful without being overly sweet. The mousse filling made it perfect. I made a milk chocolate mousse and used orange liquor instead of coffee liquor. I made a white chocolate icing. The white chocolate icing and milk chocolate mousse complimented each other and the cake well.
