Recipe For Desire inspired me to find this recipe. . .Devon would be proud

Let me say, I'm not a cook. I struggle with grilled cheese sometimes.
But Devon Harris used food to love and seduce Marie Charles (and a lot of other women, but we're not going to bring up his Paris past -- yet).

While he was a student in Paris, he created a chocolate cake called, A Lover's Cake. On the menus in France, it reads, gateau d'amoureux at Le Bouquet des Archives.
Devon is pretty closed mouth on his recipe for this cake, but he assures me this cake here comes close.
Here's the recipe, courtesy of All Recipes.com:

Ingredients

  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, melted
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 cup heavy cream, whipped

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare and bake cake mix according to package directions for two 9-inch layers. Cool and remove from pans.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together sweetened condensed milk and melted chocolate. Gradually stir in the water, then instant pudding until smooth. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Remove the chocolate mixture from the refrigerator, and stir to loosen. Fold in whipped cream and return to the refrigerator for at least another hour.
  4. Place one layer of cake onto a serving plate. Top with 1 1/2 cups of the mousse, then cover with the remaining cake layer. Frost with the remaining mousse, and refrigerate until serving. Garnish with fresh fruit or chocolate shavings.
If you try it, let me know how it turns out for you and if it sparks a "recipe for desire" at your home.
