Eleven years ago I visited France for the first time and experienced THE BEST MEAL OF MY LIFE in Albi. The five course delight was capped off by a thick, rich chocolate dessert that I was unable to identify or duplicate for years. The dish was not quite a mousse, not quite a solid fudge…it wasn’t quite anything discernible. I searched high and low for a decade for anything that came even close to my mystery dessert and finally stumbled upon it by mistake one glorious day when my mint chocolate mousse hardened.
