How To Make Chocolate, Cardamom & Hazelnut Torte
Indulge in the rich flavors of chocolate, the warmth of cardamom, and the crunch of hazelnuts in this decadent torte.
Serves:
Ingredients
- 200g dark chocolate, chopped
- 150g unsalted butter
- 150g hazelnuts, toasted and finely ground
- 4 eggs, separated
- 150g sugar
- 1 tsp ground cardamom
- Pinch of salt
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan.
-
In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate and butter together over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until pale and creamy. Gradually add the cooled chocolate mixture, ground hazelnuts, cardamom, and salt, stirring until well combined.
-
In another clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture until no white streaks remain.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
-
Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, carefully remove from the pan and transfer to a serving platter.
-
Dust with powdered sugar before serving. Slice and enjoy!
