Ingredients
For the cake:
- 300 g brown sugar
- 240 g plain flour all purpose
- 130 g butter unslated, roughly chopped
- 240 ml cream thickened
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 200 g hazelnuts roasted
For the chocolate ganache:
- 200 g dark chocolate cooking chocolate - 70% min. chopped into small pieces
- 250 ml cream pouring
Instructions
- Pre heat your oven to 180 deg C and grease and line a 23cm spring form cake tin
- In a food processor combine the sugar, flour and butter. Proceed to pulse the mixture until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Spread one third of this mixture into the bottom of the cake tin.
- In a separate bowl whisk together the cream, eggs and baking powder. Fold in the remaining flour mixture and stir until well combined.
- Pour into the cake tin and top with ¾ of the roasted hazelnut mixture
- Bake for 40-50 mins or until a skewer inserted into the middle part of the cake comes out clean.
- Whilst the cake is cooling make the ganache by heating your cream in a heavy based saucepan until it starts to boil. Remove from the heat and pour over the chopped chocolate. Allow to cool a little (or a lot, if you prefer it thicker) and pour over the cake. Top with more hazelnuts.
- Serve with Greek yoghurt.
