No-Bake Triple Chocolate Cake Recipe

This cake features layers of chocolate cookies soaked in milk, rich chocolate mousse made from melted chocolate and whipped cream, and a topping of whipped cream for a luscious finish. The preparation time is about 30 minutes, and it requires chilling in the refrigerator for several hours before serving, making it a convenient dessert option.

Ingredients

1 package (14 oz) chocolate wafer cookies
1 cup milk for soaking cookies
8 oz cream cheese softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup heavy cream
8 oz semi-sweet chocolate chopped
1 cup whipped cream for topping
Chocolate shavings for garnish optional

Instructions

Prepare the Chocolate Mousse: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chopped semi-sweet chocolate until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Gradually add the melted chocolate and mix until well combined.
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture until fully incorporated.
Assemble the Cake: Dip each chocolate wafer cookie in milk for a few seconds to soften. Layer the soaked cookies in the bottom of a 9×13 inch dish.
Spread half of the chocolate mousse over the cookie layer. Repeat the process with another layer of soaked cookies and the remaining mousse.
Top with a final layer of whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings if desired.
Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set.
Serve: Slice into squares and serve chilled, enjoying the rich layers of chocolate.
