Ingredients

Cookie Base:
200g vanilla cookies
40g butter

Red Beet Whipped Cream:
180g heavy whipping cream
3 tbsp sugar

Chocolate Mousse:
100g dark chocolate
50g milk chocolate
130g heavy whipping cream
100g heavy whipping cream
150g cream cheese
30g powdered sugar
2.5g gelatin
20g water

Red Beet Mousse:
180g cream cheese
80g heavy whipping cream
2 tbsp Suncore Foods® Red Beet Powder and 1/4 cup water
80g sugar
7g gelatin
40g water


Directions

1. Prepare the Base — Pulse cookies in a food processor until finely ground. Combine with room temperature butter and mix until the texture resembles coarse crumbs. 

2. Form the Base — Line a baking ring with aluminum foil and press the cookie mixture firmly onto the bottom to form the crust. 

3. Make the Chocolate Mousse — Melt the dark and milk chocolate in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval. Combine gelatin and 20g water; let bloom. Heat 100g heavy cream until just before boiling, then stir in the bloomed gelatin. Pour the hot cream mixture over the melted chocolate and stir until smooth. Add cream cheese and mix until fully incorporated. In a separate bowl, whip the remaining 130g heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture.

4. Assemble the First Layer — Pour the chocolate mousse over the cookie base and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until set.

5. Make the Red Beet Mousse — Bloom gelatin in 40g water. In a small bowl, mix Suncore Foods® Red Beet Powder with 1/4 cup water and set aside. In another bowl, combine cold heavy cream and sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves, then whip until soft peaks form. Gently heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave for 10 seconds. In a separate bowl, mix cream cheese, dissolved gelatin, and red beet mixture using a hand mixer until smooth. Fold in the whipped cream until well combined.

6. Assemble the Second Layer — Pour the red beet mousse over the chocolate mousse layer and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully set.

7. Prepare the Red Beet Whipped Cream — Dissolve Suncore Foods® Red Beet Powder in the heavy cream and strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove lumps. Add sugar and whip with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.

8. Decorate and Serve — Remove the cake from the pan and cut into portions. Pipe red beet whipped cream on top of each slice before serving. Enjoy!
