Rhubarb-Mascarpone Mousse CakeChris Gentile

A yellow cake gets filled with jam then cleverly surrounded by a rhubarb mousse by using a larger spring-form pan as a mold. A jewel-like rhubarb glaze creates a finishing touch. If you have small, early tri-star or wild strawberries to garnish the top, so much the better!

Cooks' Notes:

•Mousse cake can be made 1 day ahead and kept chilled. Loosely cover with plastic wrap once glaze is set (use toothpicks to keep plastic wrap from touching glaze, if necessary).
