    PLEASE HELP!!! I am trying to make this for Boss' Day tomorrow, but the cream steps arent finished. It doesnt say how to make the other two layers. Its confusing on when to actually make the middle layer and the top layer. Can somebody clarify.
    I have the Chocolate melted in the pan, then the egg mixture in the bowl, and the cream mixture in a pan. I put half the cream in the bowl, so that leaves me 3 bowls/pans. i put the gelatin and remaining cream togther. Thats two left. i pour a 3rd of the gelatin mixture into the chocolate, and then do it twice more, that leaves only one layer. There are 3 in the picture. And the middle layer looks to have chocolate in it too. I really want to make this by tomorrow. :)
