I usually make mousse quite frequently during the summer. Because it's too much trouble to bake base cakes each times, I came up with this recipe to make a lot at once and to freeze for later use.

If you whisk the egg white too much, it becomes difficult to mix. If it's too runny, the batter doesn't turn out well. Just make sure to stop whisking when it forms stiff peaks.
You could freeze this cake after it's baked. Wrap with plastic wrap and freeze in a ziplock bag. Make sure to use it up quickly. Recipe by nyonta
