Homey and elegant at the same time. A taste combination guaranteed to please everyone. Not really a cake but a mousse set in a lovely pattern in a loaf pan and cut in slices. The 7 hours is not cooking time, but setting time as this dessert has to set in the freezer.

  • Smooth top.
  • Cover pan.
  • Freeze until chocolate is firm, about 6 hours or overnight.
  • For glaze: Heat cream and butter in medium saucepan over low heat until cream simmers and butter is melted.
  • Turn off heat.
  • Add chocolate and whisk until mixture is smooth.
  • Let cool until thickened but still of pouring consistency, about 1 ½ hours.
  • Invert loaf onto cake rack.
  • Remove pan; remove and discard foil.
  • Pour glaze over mousse and smooth all surfaces.
  • Transfer mousse to a serving platter.
  • Freeze until glaze sets, about 1 hour (can be prepared 1 day ahead. Wrap loosely when chocolate is frozen solid).

3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon whole milk

Pinch of salt
