raspberry-and-vanilla-mousse-biscuit-entremet

This dessert is constructed from two round mousse discs that resemble a classic Linzer biscuit. At first glance, it looks like a cookie sandwich with cut-out windows on top, but it is in fact a structured mousse and biscuit dessert. The bottom layer is a compressed butter biscuit base topped with vanilla ganache montée and fresh raspberries. The top disc is a frozen mousse layer coated in a thin cacao shell and stamped with three circular openings, echoing the look of a traditional Linzer biscuit while keeping the texture light and creamy. It looks like a biscuit, but it tastes like a refined mousse cake. You get crunch from the shell and base, balanced by soft vanilla cream and sharp raspberry. See notes below.
