Ingredients

For the base

• 150 g of biscuits type digestive or maría
• 70g butter

For the English “mother” cream

• 500 g whipping cream
• Vanilla essence (required amount)
• 70g sugar
• 4 egg yolks

For the dark chocolate layer

• 1/3 part of the crème anglaise
• 60 g of dark chocolate
• 1 sheet of gelatin
• 150 g of cream

For the milk chocolate layer

• 1/3 part of the crème anglaise
• 60 g milk chocolate
• 1 sheet of gelatin
• 150 g of cream

For the white chocolate layer

• 1/3 part of the crème anglaise
• 60 g white chocolate
• 1 sheet of gelatin
• 150 g of cream

Utensils

• Kitchen robot or mortar
• Container
• 20 cm diameter mold, at least
• Saucepan
• Bowls
• Electric rods
• Spoon or spatula

Preparation

First of all, we are going to prepare the English cream that will serve you for the chocolate layers:

• First, boil the cream.
• Then, in a bowl, beat the yolks with the sugar.
• Then add the hot cream and continue beating.
• Lastly, add the vanilla extract.
• Finally, divide into 3 equal parts and reserve.

Let’s go for the preparation of the cake itself. Take note:

• First, crush the cookies in a food processor or mortar  and then mix with the semi-melted butter. You will have a somewhat sandy mass. Then, put it in the bottom of the mold you are going to use (better if it is circular).

• Then press well to make it compact. Then, put in the fridge while you continue with the fillings.
• Next, hydrate the gelatin sheets with cold water for 5 minutes.
• Then melt the chocolates separately. It can be in the microwave or in a bain-marie.
• Next, put each sheet of gelatin in the bowls with crème anglaise. Then, stir well and then pour the chocolate in each one. Finally, pour in the semi-whipped cream.
• Finally, remove the base from the fridge and spread the first of the chocolate layers. Chill for about 15 minutes before adding the second coat. Then do the same with the third.
• When finished, leave 3 more hours for everything to solidify.

Data of interest

• Difficulty level: Intermediate
• Preparation time: 35 minutes + 4 hours in the fridge
• Tips: We recommend putting the layer of white chocolate on top to create contrast. Although you can also put them in the order you prefer.

Be careful when adding the second and third layers because if the previous one is not completely cold they will mix. This is how it will stop being a three-chocolate mousse cake!
