Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 ea 9 inch chocolate layer cake 8 oz White fondant
2 lb Semi-sweet chocolate 2 c Whipping cream

With a serrated knife or thread, cut cake into two layers and place

fondant - medium power. Heat 1/2 cup cream to lukewarm. If using a
microwave, allow 30 seconds. Beat the remaining chilled cream until
it forms soft peaks; set aside. In a large bowl, combine warm cram
with fondant and melted chocolate. Stir until ingredients are evenly
blended and the temperature is reduced to lukewarm. Beat the soft
chocolate mixture and gradually incorporate the whipped cream. Spoon
one-half of the creamy chocolate mixture over cake. Top with second
layer of cake. Complete by spreading the second half of the chocolate
mixture over top. Refrigerate the cake for 8 to 12 hours. Serve
chilled with whipped cream and chocolate curls. Serves 16. From The
