What are Zebra Domes?
Zebra Domes small, almost bite-size treats. They are made of a layer of white cake, a dome of Kahlua, chocolate and espresso flavored mousse, topped with a white chocolate ganache, and drizzled in a zebra-stripe pattern with dark chocolate. (If you want to make them yourself, keep scrolling for the recipe!)
