Sneaky Raspberry PBJ Mousse Cake

SHARE THE LOVE

Can a cake idea be cute? I think this is my cutest one. Also, it’s so, so good, and I’m not even a PBJ person. Do you have to be to dig peanut butter cookie crust and luscious raspberry mousse, topped with salted peanut butter caramel, raspberry syrup, and crunchy roasted peanuts? No. You don’t.

Can you guess what’s sneaky about this cake? Hint: it’s two (two!) cups of cauliflower! (OK, that was a pretty big hint.) I GUARANTEE you. can. not. taste. it.

It’s really not very labor intensive, and all the steps are simple. Plus all toppings are optional (but HIGHLY recommended) if you really need to speed things up.

While this is a very decadent dessert, it’s not super sweet. That’s my preference. Taste and adjust if you need things sweeter.
