1989 Recipe - Jean Hansen - From Shadowbrook Restaurant, Capitola, CA.


"This one is for the true chocolate lover." - Calla Ferre

"I made this for the French-themed Shacklett Lab holiday party.  Only, as I'm an over achiever, I did a triple chocolate layered mousse with semi-sweet chocolate on the bottom, milk chocolate in the middle, and white chocolate on top, garnished with mint leaves and maraschino cherries.  For this recipe, as for candy making, the quality of chocolate is very important here.  I use Ghirardelli or Guittard chocolate when making this.  It is very rich, and a small amount is very satisfying." - April Ferre
