Mini Mousse Cakes

Not Minnie Mouse Cakes! Mini as in little. Mousse as in fluffy pudding. Cake - you know cake, right?
On Food Network the other night, on The Best Thing I Ever Ate there was a 20 layer chocolate mousse cake. That sounded really good, but I didn't want to make a huge cake.

See how tiny? That's 1/4 of a cake.













And a blurry shot of the layers- one mini cake cut in half.

Rum Balls

Don't they look yummy?

Terramisu cupcakes!


Corny, I know- but I couldn't resist. These cupcakes were based on the recipe from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World. Once you try them you'll agree! I never liked the original tiramisu, it was too heavy for me. These are light and fluffy with espresso, kahlua and a creamy filling with chocolate shavings instead of cocoa on top.
