PSA guys. My samples of Double Choc Mousse Cake actually worked which was a surprise because taste.com.au recipes are usually a bit shit.

What I did was placed a chocolate ripple biscuit in each patty pan (6 all up). Made half the mixture but added a tbsp of icing sugar to the cream whist whipping it. The only thing I would add is a dollop of whipped cream on top of the cake

It was delicious. Highly recommend. 5/5 yum yums.

So did you do the choc ripple bikkies instead of blitzing the generic. choc biscuits and mixing with melted butter?

Yes exactly. Just one whole choc ripple biscuit in the patty pan. Put the mousse on top. Put it in the fridge and the fridge softens the biscuit a bit so it's not hard. When I make the normal size cake I'll do the proper biscuit base.

This sounds excellent! I don't have a food processor plus this saves cleaning one thing.
