In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt over a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth. Allow to cool slightly.

Melt Chocolate and Butter

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until pale and fluffy. Add the melted chocolate mixture, and mix until well combined. Gently fold in the all-purpose flour and salt until just incorporated.

Prepare the Batter

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Bake the Cake

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Take about a third of the whipped cream and fold it into the cooled chocolate mixture. Once combined, gently fold in the remaining whipped cream until no white streaks remain.

Make the Mousse

Once the cake is completely cool, slice it in half horizontally to create two layers. Place one layer on a serving plate, and spread half of the mousse on top. Add the second layer of cake, and spread the remaining mousse on top. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set.

Assemble the Cake

Once the mousse is set, slice and serve the cake chilled. Enjoy your delicious Belgian Chocolate Mousse Cake!
