We combined the flavors of hazelnut, chocolate, cocoa, and almonds to create a soft and delicious cake. You'll love our Hazelnut Chocolate Cake Recipe, believe us. For practicality, we used ready-made chocolate sauce on top in our hazelnut chocolate cake recipe. It ensures the cake stays moist and not dry. So, don't confuse it with a regular Hazelnut Chocolate Cake. They are two different recipes.
Ingredients for Hazelnut Chocolate Sauce Cake:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 packet baking powder
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 cup fresh hazelnuts (can also use dried)
- 1/4 cup fresh almonds
For the topping:
- Chocolate sauce
- Pistachios
Instructions for Hazelnut Chocolate Cake:
1. Beat 3 eggs and 1 cup of granulated sugar together until the mixture turns pale and fluffy, for at least 3 minutes on high speed.
2. Add 1 cup of milk and 1/4 cup of vegetable oil, and continue to beat.
3. Sift in 2.5 cups of flour, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, 1 packet of baking powder, and vanilla extract into the mixture. Mix thoroughly. For a better rising cake, fold the flour into the batter using a spatula or wooden spoon once it's incorporated.
4. Grind the hazelnuts into coarse pieces using a food processor.
5. Add the ground hazelnuts into the cake batter and mix.
6. Pour the batter into a greased cake pan. After pouring, sprinkle crushed almonds on top. They will form the bottom of the cake after baking. Fill any gaps with almonds.
7. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for approximately 45 minutes.
8. Perform a toothpick test to check if the hazelnut almond cake is done. Remove it from the oven and separate it from the pan.
9. Spread plenty of chocolate sauce on the sponge-like baked cake and decorate with pistachios. After letting it rest for a while, slice and serve.
With abundant chocolate sauce on top, almonds at the bottom, and hazelnuts inside, this hazelnut chocolate cake is both nutritious and delicious. You'll definitely enjoy this cake. We used fresh almonds because they will be directly exposed to heat and might burn if using roasted almonds.
