• 1 tsp baking powder

• 3 large eggs
  
• 1/4 cup sugar
  
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
  
• Grated rind of 1 orange
  
• 4 tsp Godiva liqueur
  
• 1 cup coarsely chopped almonds

Instructions



1. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt; set aside. Beat the eggs until light, add the sugar gradually, and beat until the mixture is ribbony, about 10 minutes. Stir in the orange rind and Godiva liqueur. Add the sifted ingredients and blend on low speed until incorporated. Fold in the almonds, hazelnuts and pine nuts until blended.
   
   
2. With lightly floured hands, form 3 loaves, each 12 inches long and 2 inches wide; place on a buttered baking sheet and brush with egg wash. Bake in a preheated 350º F oven for 20 minutes, until lightly golden.
   
   
3. Remove from the oven and, using a serrated knife, immediately cut diagonally into 3/4-inch slices. Lay the slices on their sides on a sheet pan, return to the oven, and bake for 6 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from the oven, cool, and store in a tightly covered container. Serve drizzled with additional Godiva liqueur.
