To prepare a delicious chocolate and hazelnut cake, we start by separating the egg whites from the yolks of 6 eggs. In a large bowl, we beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until we obtain a stiff and shiny foam, to which we gradually add 200 grams of sugar, continuing to beat until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture becomes firm. In another bowl, we whisk the yolks with a tablespoon of sugar until the mixture becomes creamy and light in color. We then add 50 ml of oil, mixing well to integrate the ingredients.
Now it’s time to combine the two mixtures. Using a spatula, we gradually add the beaten yolks to the egg whites, gently folding from the bottom up, so as not to deflate the incorporated air. In another container, we mix 100 grams of flour with 100 grams of grated chocolate and 1/2 packet of baking powder. This mixture of dry ingredients will be gradually integrated into the egg mixture, continuing to mix gently until we obtain a uniform batter.
We prepare a cake pan, either using baking paper or aluminum foil greased with margarine, to prevent sticking. We pour the mixture into the pan, ensuring it is evenly distributed. On top, we add pieces of chocolate with hazelnuts, which will melt and provide a delicious taste. We preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and bake the cake for about 30-35 minutes. It is important to do the toothpick test to ensure it is cooked through.
After the cake is baked, we carefully remove it from the oven and turn it onto a wooden board, allowing it to cool completely. In the meantime, we prepare a delicious glaze from 100 grams of chocolate. We melt it over low heat together with 3 tablespoons of water and a tablespoon of margarine, stirring constantly until we obtain a smooth and shiny mixture. We apply it evenly over the cooled cake, allowing it to drip slightly over the edges. To finish, we decorate with colorful sprinkles or other favorite toppings, turning our dessert into a true culinary masterpiece. Enjoy this chocolate and hazelnut cake, perfect for any occasion!
