Chocolate Banana Mousse Cake: Banana Choco Cake for people who love chocolate.

I rarely meet the people who don't love the combination of chocolate and banana, these two ingredients always get along very well. So, when some of the reader request the recipe for the chocolate and banana cake, I think it must be delicious and I want to eat it too.^^

 Actually there are a lot of recipes for the simple thing like chocolate mousse, when I started to draw this recipe in my head all I have to do is choosing what kind of the mousse that I want to use. 
If you ask me, I love to eat chocolate mousse with a lot of chocolate taste, which mean a lot of chocolate too, haha. The chocolate is the main ingredient and the other ingredient is a whipping cream to make the hard texture of the chocolate turn into something soft and delightful.
So this cake is real bliss for people who love chocolate, and as I always say, ^^ choose the chocolate that you like esp. this recipe, all the flavor will depend on it.
The method for making this mousse is so easy, just melt the chocolate and fold it into lightly whipped cream and you got delicious and soft mousse.
Because this mousse doesn't have gelatin, it can't stand the warm temperature, but when you eat it you will understand why I use this kind of mousse for this cake ^^.
