CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT CAKE RECIPE - BBC FOOD
We made this as a birthday cake for Italy, which celebrated the 150th anniversary of its unification in 2011. Gianduia is a speciality of the Piedmont region and it’s a mixture of ground hazelnuts and chocolate.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
- Put the hazelnuts on a baking tray and roast them in the centre of the oven for 10 minutes, giving the pan a shake halfway through, until they are golden brown. Watch them carefully so that they don’t burn. Remove and leave them to cool for a few minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 180C/350F/Gas 4.Butter a 23cm/9in springform cake tin and line the base with baking parchment.
- Place 200g/7oz of the hazelnuts in a food processor and blend them until they are fairly finely ground. If you blend the nuts to the consistency of fine breadcrumbs, they should work a treat, but leave a few coarser pieces to add texture. Set the remaining 50g/2oz hazelnuts aside.
- Put the butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl and set it above a pan of gently simmering water. Stir occasionally and as soon as nearly all the chocolate has melted, remove the bowl from the pan and continue to let the chocolate melt in the residual heat.
- Stir in the ground hazelnuts and leave the mixture to cool for 5 minutes.
- Beat the egg yolks and sugar together with an electric hand-whisk for at least 5 minutes until pale and creamy, then stir into the chocolate mixture until thoroughly combined. Wash and dry the beaters well.
- In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form – they are ready when you can turn the bowl upside down without the eggs sliding out. Do not over whisk.
- Working quickly, stir the hazelnut liqueur, amaretto or orange juice, into the chocolate mixture to soften. Add a couple of tablespoonfuls of the whisked egg whites and stir until thoroughly combined, then gently fold in the remaining egg whites.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and bake in the centre of the oven for 35–40 minutes or until the cake is well risen and firm.
- Remove the cake from the oven and leave it to cool in the tin for 30 minutes. Undo the springclip and invert the cake on to a serving plate, then peel off the lining paper and leave it to cool completely.
- When the cake is cold, spread it with the chocolate and hazelnut spread and sprinkle with the hazelnuts that you set aside – these can be whole or chopped, whatever you prefer.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Grease and line two 20cm/8in sandwich tins.
- For the cake, place all of the cake ingredients, except the boiling water, into a large mixing bowl. Using a wooden spoon, or electric whisk, beat the mixture until smooth and well combined.
- Add the boiling water to the mixture, a little at a time, until smooth. (The cake mixture will now be very liquid.)
- Divide the cake batter between the sandwich tins and bake in the oven for 25–35 minutes, or until the top is firm to the touch and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
- Remove the cakes from the oven and allow to cool completely, still in their tins, before icing.
- For the chocolate icing, heat the chocolate and cream in a saucepan over a low heat until the chocolate melts. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk the mixture until smooth, glossy and thickened. Set aside to cool for 1–2 hours, or until thick enough to spread over the cake.
- To assemble the cake, run a round-bladed knife around the inside of the cake tins to loosen the cakes. Carefully remove the cakes from the tins.
- Spread a little chocolate icing over the top of one of the chocolate cakes, then carefully top with the other cake.
- Transfer the cake to a serving plate and ice the cake all over with the chocolate icing, using a palette knife.

- To decorate, melt the 50g chocolate and butter together (a microwave on low is fine), then cool a little. Drizzle all over the top, then scatter over the nuts. The cake is best filled as soon as you make the chocolate cream, to get a good shine (see make ahead).
MARY BERRY COFFEE HAZELNUT PRALINE CAKE RECIPE | BBC2 ...
From thehappyfoodie.co.uk
1. You will need two 20cm (8in) round, loose-bottomed sandwich tins and a baking sheet lined with non-stick baking paper. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/Gas 4, then grease the tins and line each base with a disc of baking paper.
2. Dissolve the coffee granules in the hot water and stir until smooth. Measure the eggs, baking spread, sugar, flour and baking powder into a large mixing bowl and add the dissolved coffee mix. Beat with an electric hand whisk until well mixed and no lumps of fat remain. Divide between the tins and level the tops.
3. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes until well risen and just shrinking away from the sides of the tins. Leave to cool slightly, then remove from the tins and leave to cool on a wire rack.
4. For the praline, measure the sugar and 4 tablespoons of water into a saucepan. Stir slowly over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved and you have a clear syrup. Remove the spoon and stop stirring, then increase the heat and boil until the syrup is pale golden. Add the hazelnuts and swirl the syrup in the pan to coat them, then quickly tip the mixture on to the lined baking sheet. Leave to cool and harden into a praline. Break the praline up on a wooden board and chop into very small pieces.
5. For the buttercream icing, dissolve the coffee in the hot water and stir until smooth. Measure the butter into a large bowl. Beat until smooth with an electric hand whisk, then add the coffee mixture and the sugar, a little at a time, and beat until smooth, light and fluffy.
6. Sit one cake on a plate. Spread with half the icing and sprinkle with half the praline. Sit the second cake on top and spread with the remaining icing, then sprinkle over the rest of praline. Cut into slices to serve.
Prepare ahead: Can be assembled and iced up to a day ahead and decorated with the praline up to 8 hours before serving.
Freeze: The cake, without icing, freezes well.
