For Hazelnut Cake with Chocolate Filling

Step by step:

Ingredients:

For the cake:

• 2 cups of all-purpose flour
• 1 cup of ground hazelnuts
• 1 cup of sugar
• 1/2 cup of melted butter
• 1/2 cup of milk
• 4 eggs
• 2 teaspoons of baking powder
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

For the chocolate filling:

• 200g of semisweet chocolate
• 1 can of condensed milk
• 2 tablespoons of sugar
• 1 tablespoon of butter

For the topping:

• 1 cup of chopped hazelnuts

Step-by-step:

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a round cake pan.

2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, ground hazelnuts, sugar, and baking powder.

3. Add the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir well until you have a smooth batter.

4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

5. While the cake is baking, prepare the chocolate filling. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the semisweet chocolate along with the condensed milk, sugar, and butter. Stir constantly until you have a smooth mixture, then set aside to cool.

6. Once the cake has cooled, cut it in half horizontally to create two layers.

7. Spread the chocolate filling evenly onto the bottom half of the cake.

8. Place the top half of the cake onto the filling, gently pressing it down.

9. For the topping, sprinkle the chopped hazelnuts over the top of the cake.

10. If desired, you can decorate the cake with chocolate shavings or whole hazelnuts.
