Soft Gianduia Cake

Soft Gianduia Cake

Soft Gianduia Cake

200 g gianduia chocolate
150 g butter, on room temperature
150 g powdered sugar
120 g sliced almonds
50 g corn starch
3 eggs
powdered sugar and cocoa for dusting

Line large baking pan with baking paper and arrange almonds over. Toast them in the oven on 200°C until slightly brown. Crush 2/3 and leave the rest whole.

Beat butter and sugar with a mixer. Add eggs, one at a time, then corn starch and crushed almonds and stir. Chop gianduia and melt in a double boiler. Add it into the batter.

Pour the batter into 18 cm diameter spring-form pan lined with baking paper. Toss the remaining almonds on top and bake in a preheated oven on 140°C for about 30 minutes. Let cool completely and then remove from the pan and dust with some powdered sugar and cocoa.

My notes: I made half of the recipe in a 10 cm diameter spring-form pan. The finished and cooled cake was extremely soft and should be eaten with a spoon.

The recipe is from Sale&Pepe magazine, Serbian issue for April 2010.

  3. Eh, mi mali ljudi iz provincije:))) Nisam čula za ovu čokoladu i ne znam po čemu je ona specifična ali, živio internet: vidjela sam što je to! Svejedno torta mi izgleda savršeno a s tvojom sličicom je sve tako čarobno!

  4. Great and delicious cake.
    The sweetness of the Gianduia makes it very special and has the hazelnut plus flavour.
    Lovely touch with the pansies dot it around ♥

  6. Lješnjaci i čokolada pa čokolada s lješnjacima su omiljene kombinacije mog dragoga, a ni meni nisu mrske. :)
    Ova torta mi zvuči ko prava bomba i sigurno bi nam se svidjela. :)

    P.S.
    Nadam se da će braco biti zadovoljan onom čokoladnom tortom. :)
