2. Add the egg yolks to the chocolate‑butter mixture and stir until fully combined.
3. Sift the flour and gently fold it into the chocolate mixture.
4. Beat the egg whites until they begin to foam, then gradually add the sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
5. Fold the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture in several stages, using gentle folding motions.
6. Pour the batter into the mold and bake at 175°C for 20–25 minutes. Once baked, let it cool completely and set it aside.

How to Make the Chocolate Ice‑Cream Mousse

• Heat the cream until it comes to a boil, then dissolve the gelatin in it.
• Add the slightly softened Domino chocolate ice cream to the hot cream and stir until the mixture becomes smooth and uniform.
• Finally, add the grated chocolate, mix gently, and set the mixture aside to cool slightly.

How to Make the Strawberry Ice‑Cream Mousse

• Heat the strawberry purée until it comes to a boil, then dissolve the gelatin in it.
• Add the slightly softened Domino strawberry ice cream and stir until the mixture becomes smooth and uniform.
• Finally, add the chopped strawberries, mix gently, and set the mixture aside.

How to Make the Chocolate Sauce

• Dissolve the cornstarch in the cold chocolate milk and stir until fully combined.
• Add the pieces of butter, place the mixture over low heat, and stir continuously until it thickens and becomes smooth.

Final Assembly

• Line the bottom of the mold with plastic wrap to make it easier to remove the terrine later.
• First layer: Pour in a layer of the strawberry ice‑cream mousse and place the mold in the freezer for 10–15 minutes until it firms up.
• Second layer: Add the chocolate ice‑cream mousse on top of the strawberry layer and smooth the surface.
• Third layer: Place a layer of chocolate cake over the chocolate mousse and gently press it down with your hand or a spatula to level it.
• Freeze the mold for 4–6 hours until all the layers are fully set.

Serving Time — The Moment of Pure Delight

Before serving, remove the terrine from the mold and peel off the plastic wrap. Pour the chocolate sauce over the top and decorate it with red berries such as strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries.

Each slice of this stunning dessert brings you the silky texture of the ice‑cream mousses, the softness of the chocolate cake, and the fresh, bright flavor of the berries. It’s a wonderful choice for parties and family gatherings, and it never fails to impress.

So go ahead — make it, enjoy it, and let Domino make your moments sweeter and more delicious. 🍓🍫✨
