Time 1h15m

Yield Ten servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces, plus additional for greasing pan
Flour for coating pan
8 ounces Callebaut bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
8 eggs, separated
1 1/4 cups sugar
3/4 cup hazelnuts, toasted, skinned and ground
1 tablespoon hazelnut liqueur
Confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter and flour a 10-inch springform pan. Place butter and chocolate in a bowl over barely simmering water until melted, stirring often. Whisk egg yolks with 3/4 cup of sugar. Whisk in the chocolate mixture, hazelnuts and liqueur.
  • Using an electric mixer, whip the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar and whip to firm peaks. Stir 1/3 of the whites into the chocolate mixture. Fold in the remaining whites. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out slightly moist, about 55 minutes. Let cool; cake will fall. Remove the sides of the pan and sift confectioners' sugar over the top. Cut into wedges and serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cake didn't turn out as good as I hoped. It was still edible, but it wasn't as moist and fluffy as I wanted it to be.

This cake is the perfect balance of chocolate and hazelnut. It's not too sweet and it's not too heavy.
