Directions:
- Cake:
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 10-inch-diameter spring form pan; dust with sugar.
- Melt chocolate and butter in heavy large saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly.
- Cool to lukewarm.
- Whisk in sugar.
- Whisk in eggs 1 at a time, blending well after each addition.
- Mix in vanilla and salt, then flour.
- Pour batter into pan.
- Bake until cake just rises in center (tester inserted into center will not come out clean), about 35 minutes.
- Cool completely in pan on rack. Cover; chill while making mousse.
- Mousse filling:
- Melt butter in medium metal bowl set over saucepan of simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water).
- Whisk yolks, 1/4 cup cream and vanilla in small bowl to blend. Gradually whisk yolk mixture into bowl with melted butter.
- Whisk constantly over simmering water until thermometer registers 150°F, about 6 minutes (mixture may appear broken).
- Remove from over water; add chocolate and stir to melt.
- Set aside.
- Beat egg whites and 1/2 cup sugar in large bowl to medium-stiff peaks.
- Whisk 1/4 of beaten egg white mixture into warm chocolate mixture to lighten.
- Fold in remaining egg white mixture.
- Pour mousse over cake in pan; smooth top.
- Chill torte until mousse is set, at least 6 hours and up to 1 day.
- Serving:
- Run sharp knife around edge of pan to loosen torte.
- Release pan sides.
- Transfer torte to platter.
- Using electric mixer, beat 3/4 cup cream in medium bowl until peaks form.
- Spread whipped cream over torte.
- Top whipped cream with raspberries.
- Brush red currant jelly mixture over raspberries.
- Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar.
- MY Notes: unless you eat this all. I would not top the cake with whipped cream. I would serve it on the side.
