Instructions:

1. Preheat and Prepare:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Melt the Chocolate:
- In a heatproof bowl, melt the chopped dark chocolate over a double boiler until smooth, or microwave it in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Once melted, set it aside to cool slightly.
3. Beat the Eggs and Sugar:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the 5 eggs with the 3/4 cup sugar using an electric mixer on high speed until the mixture becomes thick, pale, and forms ribbons when the beaters are lifted. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
4. Combine Ingredients:
- Gently fold the melted chocolate into the egg and sugar mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to deflate the batter.
- Once combined, fold in the 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream.
- Add the toasted and chopped hazelnuts, stirring gently to incorporate.
5. Add Raspberries:
- Carefully fold in the raspberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Bake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the cake is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
7. Cool and Serve:
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, remove the parchment paper, slice, and serve.
