I check into it weekly and so enjoy reading the site. Thank you. I am searching for a particular chocolate bombe recipe. I checked your pages, but I could not find the one I wanted. It’s VERY chocolatey, and I got it years ago from a paperback Julia Child cookbook. (I think the cover was primarily red.) There was a three chocolate bombe, but the name of the recipe was in French— something like Bombe au Trois Chocolat. The center of the dessert was a chocolate mousse. The mousse was covered with a brownie layer. (I think J. Child gave credit to a 12-year-old girl for developing that part of the recipe.) The concoction was covered in a melted chocolate of some sort. I’ve lost my copy of the recipe, but would very much like to make it for a chocolatophile friend. Can you help me once again? I hope you’re having a lovely June. Sincerely, Virginia
