Chocolate Marquise

Don’t ask me why this very rich, buttery chocolate mousse is especially delicious served cold, in thin slices, as opposed to being eaten with a spoon. It just is. And, I wouldn’t be surprised if créme anglaise weren’t invented just to accompany it, although I also serve it with a quicker Fresh Cream Sauce or just plain whipped cream.

Chocolate Marquise is a great standby. It is almost too easy to make and indescribably elegant to eat. I use it
