Avocado Mousse Cake



1st trial making this cake for mom's bday present.. cihuuuuuyyyy...successfully!! got the recipe from the cookbook "Mousse Cake, Modern cake step by step". I add more white cooking choc coz my avocado not sweet enough and a hint of green food coloring to give and maintain the color of avcado :) For the topping i made choc mousse buttercream... everything's about mousse everybody! hahahahaha...

U can use any kind of choc cake.. either sacher torte, black forest, or sponge cake. This avocado mousse recipe fit for 20x20x4 square pan cake (1 layer). Usually i add another kind of mousse (i.e. choc mousse) for the other layer of cake, i mean ... 3 layer cake and using 2 kind of mousse, avocado and choc.

Avocado Mousse recipe:
200 gr avocado, mashed.
100 gr white cooking chocolate, melted
8 gr gelatin, soak in cold water and boil (i use 1 tsp gelatin powder)
200 gr heavy cream, whipped

Mix the avocado, white choc and gelatin.
Add whipped cream by batch into the avocado mixture whilist stir it until well blended.

i did different technique from the cookbook which is i boil the gelatin together when i melted the white choc. When the choc already melt, i add the gelatin and keep stirring so white choc and gelatin could mix evenly. Turn off heat and let it cool. Then i add avocado into it. And put avocado mixture into whipped cream and stir them until well blended.
