MAKING NUTELLA HAZELNUT CHOCOLATE TORTE

Ingredients

Cake Base

1 cup and 1/8 cup hazelnuts, chopped

5 eggs whites, large

1/3 cup regular, white sugar

5 TBSP flour (all purpose, unbleached)

Yellow and Chocolate Filling

5 egg yolks

1/3 cup +1 TBSP sugar

2 packages Dr. Oetker Vanilla puddding (can’t use instant)

3 3/4 cups milk (2%)

1/2 cup butter, unsalted

1/3 cup icing sugar

5 oz chocolate, semi-sweet (or use unsweetened)

1 tsp rum

1 1/2 cups Nutella

Heavy Cream Topping

2 cups heavy cream

1 pouch Dr. Oetker Whip It

Decoration: 1/2 cup hazelnuts, grounded or chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

Your first step is to toast hazelnuts.

How to toast hazelnuts (for step by step instructions check the link)

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Spread your shelled hazelnuts on it in a single layer.

Place into the oven and bake from 10 to 12 minutes at 350 F.( I did for 10 minutes)

Wrap baked hazelnuts in a kitchen towel and let them hug for a few minutes.

While they are hugging, use kitchen towel to gently rub the hazelnuts to release their skins.

Chopped the hazelnut.

Making the bottom layer cake

Line bottoms of 6 inch cake pans with parchment paper. (do not grease the sides or the bottom).

Add toasted, chopped hazelnuts to the bottom of the pan. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Mixing Bowl:

First mix eggs whites until foamy and then add sugar and mix until firm peaks and sugar is incorporated.

Your next step is to add the flour. You are not going to use mixer at this point.

Add the flour and fold with a spatula. Stop mixing when no streaks of flour remain.

Important: Be sure the flour is incorporated.

Pour the batter into 6 inch prepared pan, on top of the toasted, chopped hazelnuts.

Bake for about 19 minutes but start checking after 15 minutes. ( be sure to check using the toothpick)

Insert the wooden toothpick near the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.

Cool the cake. Remove from the pan.

When removing cake from the pan, be very careful.

Making Vanilla and Chocolate Cake Filling

Add 5 eggs yolks and sugar into the mixing bowl. Mix for about 3 minutes.

Then add 2 Dr. Oetker Vanilla pudding and 1/2 cup milk. (room temperature).

Mix until all ingredients are incorporated. (another minute or two)

Meanwhile, add 3 1/4 cup cold milk into large pot.

Bring the milk to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the egg/pudding mixture.

Return to heat and stir non stop for about 3 minutes or until thickness.

Remove from heat, transfer to the mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let it cool.

While the filling is cooling, mix butter and icing sugar until incorporated. (2 minutes)

Add cooled yellow filling to the mixed butter.

Mix all ingredients until incorporated.

Divide into 2.

One will stay yellow filling and the other will become the dark, chocolate filling.

MELTING CHOCOLATE

Melt 5 oz chocolate using the double method. Cool it. Set aside.

Make Chocolate Filling

BTW, this filling is made from vanilla filling.

Take half of the vanilla filling and transfer to the mixing bowl.

Add melted chocolate to the yellow filling and mix until incorporated.

Then add 1 tsp of rum. Mix all ingredients until incorporated.

ASSEMBLY OF Easy Nutella Cake

Using the same 6 inch removable pan start building the cake.

Place egg white cake at the bottom of the pan. (you will have cake with hazelnuts on the top)

Add 1 1/2 cups of Nutella (or as much to cover the base of the cake).

Add half of yellow filling on the top of Nutella.

Sprinkle with grounded hazelnuts.

Then add chocolate filling.

Transfer the whole cake to the fridge for 6 hours or overnight.

NEXT DAY:

Mix heavy cream and whip it.

Cover the chocolate filling with whipped heavy cream.

Optional: You can cover the whole torte (top and sides) with heavy cream. (it is your choice. I did not.)

Top with chopped hazelnut and shaved chocolate.

Enjoy and share.

Hazelnuts Nutella Torte

Quick Note

Hazelnuts – please use toasted hazelnuts. To learn as much as possible how to toast or caramelized hazelnuts, please check this link

Nutella – it is hazelnut spread. You can make homemade version if you want to. I like to buy Nutella from the Costco. (It is the best price.)

Vanilla pudding – YOU CAN’T USE INSTANT. It has to be Dr. Oetker.

Chocolate – semi-sweet is my choice for chocolate.

And one more thing. Let me repeat the steps for assembly.

Assembly the cake in this order:

Lamington Australian Coconut Cake (#1 Recipe)

This cake is from my happy, safe and free childhood. Lamington Australian Coconut Cake or #1 Recipe for my whole life. Yes, this post is so emotional to me. So much memory and so much love for this cake that I can’t express…but I am sure you can feel it. Love is in the air…from Australia or New Zealand.

Lamingtons Cake
lamingtons Australian Coconut cake-the best cake

If there is one cake that is number #1 inside of my chocolate soul, it is this one.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen I like you to meet and say hello to the best coconut cake called …

Lamington cake

(don’t mind me. I treat cake as a human being…so saying hello is just normal communication in my life…)

Let me start with this … As a kid I was not able to say Lamington cake so I always called this cake coconut. My mum’s friends used to bring me this cake all the time. And they used to joke that I need to move to Australia or to be shipped there. So, yes since a very young age I knew two things about this cake:

It is from Australia and it has the name that I can’t say. Why is love so complicated? (my little soul was wondering)

Now, many years after and many cakes after I still think LAMINGTON IS THE ONE. My cake and my soul. But how about you my dear readers? How much do you know about this best cake from Australia? So, let me give you a quick introduction to this amazing chocolate coconut cake.

Lamington Australian Coconut cake
Lamington Australian Coconut cake-easy cake

DESCRIPTION OF LAMINGTON CAKE

It is the sponge cake coated in chocolate and rolled in desiccated coconut. The cake is moist, delicate and utterly delicious. So delicious that in Australia, July 21st is designated as National Lamington Day in which charity groups sell Lamingtons to raise money. (how amazing is that?)

The cake is served with tea in Australia or with coffee in Europe. This cake is also great gift for Christmas.

Also, some people use raspberry jam or plum jam as the filling for the cake. What do you think? Would you like to try it? Personally, I loved it but my favorite is still just plain Lamington cake with chocolate and coconut.

Question for YOU? Do you know what the word lamington means? The word lamington means layers of beaten gold. How poetic is that…layers of beaten gold. And you are eating that. You rich son of … cake. So, let’s make this golden cake or layers of beaten gold now.

Also, if you don’t like to make homemade pie crust you can use store-bought version. It is up to you but our recipe for pie crust is super easy to make. (and so cheap)

In case you are wondering why somebody would use oatmeal in pies I am going to answer to you. And in order to do that I have to go back, way back into 1800. (Hello 1800… I am so happy to escape 2020). BTW, not really. It was bad year too…but I have to give you an answer. (see below)

During the civil war pecans were so expensive and not easy to find. So what was the solution?…Oatmeal, yes people use oatmeal in order to create tasty desserts. And because of that we have the best Amish Oatmeal Pie which kind of taste like pecan pie. (kind of..)

Also, I have to admin I like Amish Pie way more than Pecan Pie…unless is boozy Pecan Pie.

3 Ways to Quickly Ripen Bananas

Oven Baked Bananas – Place your bananas on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 250 F.

Paper Bag (12 to 24 hours) – Place bananas in a brown paper bag and close loosely. Bananas emit ethylene which creates ripening.

Microwave Method – take a fork and poke through the skin of the peel (on all sides). Place poked bananas in the microwave for 30 seconds. Cool it and check for softness. If you are not satisfy keep going. Place bananas into the microwave for another 30 seconds. Continue until desired ripeness.

Hello from Canadian Best Butter Tarts and welcome to the sweet land of 5 star cookies.

Today is Thanksgiving in Canada, so …

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL MY READERS FROM CANADA!

And because of that I am making the recipe that is the most CANADIAN called…

THE BEST BUTTER TARTS!

I was making preparation for this recipe for a while or since I made Easy Mini Pie Crust or Butter Tart Shells

So, dear my readers have you heard about butter tarts? Are you aware of the anger regarding the raisins? To have them or not? Screw Hamlet and his “To be or not to be”. The real dilemma is here, in Canada.

Do you want raisins in your recipe or not? Since I value the peace more than anything in this life it is your choice if you want to add it or not.

Description of Butter Tarts

These Canadian treats are sweet, delicious, rich and simply irresistible. The crust is flaky filled with perfectly sticky center.

So, what kind of the perfect butter tarts can you make? (you have many choices…)

  • Plain
  • With raisins
  • Walnuts
  • Pecans
  • use your imagination (and I am going to…soon)

Yes, people love butter tarts in Canada and each province has their own favorite recipes. Speaking of love, Ontario has the Best Butter Tart Festival. As you can see Canada is in love with butter tarts.

HOW TO ROLL OUT PIE CRUST for MINI PIES or Butter Tart Shells

This is very important: Your first step is to take out your pre-made frozen dough the night before.

When you are ready to roll out your dough, use generous amount of flour on your surface and rolling pin. (this is important step since this dough loves the flour)

Place the dough on floured surface. Cover the dough with more flour.

Using your rolling pin, gently roll it from the center out, turning the dough with your hands as you go.

Roll the pie crust out to 1/8″ thickness.

This doesn’t need to be perfect. You are making mini pies or butter tarts shells.

Then use cookie cutter, large, round size. I used 3 and 1/2 inch or 9 cm.

Cut out 12 circles from the pie crust. Re-roll any scrap pieces of pie.

Place each pie circle into the cavity of a standard 12-count muffin pan.

Please, be sure to gently press the pie dough down and around the sides.

Transfer the muffin pan into the freezer for about 2 hours.

Remove from freezer, cover with plastic wrap then aluminum foil and return to the freezer. (until ready to use)

And you just made mini pie crust or butter tart shells for your future recipe.

It is your choice. And you have so many of them when it comes to this recipe.
