    List of Ingredients




    2 cups hazelnuts
    2 1/2 oz melted butter or margarine
    14 oz good-quality dark chocolate
    1 1/2 - 1 3/4 cups whipping cream
    5 eggs
    1 tsp vanilla sugar
    good 1/3 cup sugar
    5 tbs flour
    2 tbs cocoa powder
    1 tbs powdered sugar

    Decoration:
    flaked chocolate
    fresh berries or nuts

    Recipe



    Grind the nuts and mix them with fat. Press out the nut mixture over the bottom and about 1 3/4" up along the sides in a round, lightly greased baking dish with loose edges.

    Melt the chocolate with good 1/3 cup cream in a saucepan. Beat eggs, vanilla sugar, and sugar in a bowl until fluffy. Gently add the flour. Beat good 1/3 cup cream until thick. Mix in the chocolate in the egg batter and fold in the cream. Pour in the baking dish. Bake in the middle of the oven at 350F for 40 - 45 minutes. Let cool.

    Beat the remaining cream, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar until thick. Remove the edge of the baking dish. Put the cake on a serving platter and decorate with squirted cream. Sprinkle with flaked chocolate and decorate with fresh berries or nuts. Serve. Enjoy!

    If you want the cake creamy in the middle, you just bake it for 30 - 35 minutes instead of 40 - 45.
