Another Eataly Treat

I'm on a mission to try all of the sweets Eataly has to offer and I'm well on my way. Last week I picked up this delicious treat a Mousse Al Cioccolato.



It's basically a rich chocolate cake with dark chocolate mousse alternating layers with apricot and lemon gelee and a wonderful pistachio cookie base.



I am not a fan of chocolate and fruit together usually but here it worked well. The gelee layers were very thin, so thin I hardly noticed the lemon flavor. The only fruit I really tasted was the apricot glaze on top. The rest of the gelee just helped give extra moisture to the cake enhancing it's smooth creamy texture. The pistachio cookie base was fantastic as usual adding that salty nutty goodness I love in any dessert. Another score for Eataly!
