Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line it with parchment paper.
Finely grind the hazelnuts in a food processor until they are almost like a coarse flour. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour, dry cocoa powder, and ground hazelnuts until well combined. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the espresso coffee and water. Heat over medium heat until it comes to a gentle simmer, then set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer until creamy. Gradually add the sugar, continuing to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, making sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the butter and sugar mixture, alternating with the coffee syrup. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until all ingredients are combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake is completely cooled, you can dust it with powdered sugar, drizzle with chocolate glaze, or serve it as is. Enjoy your Chocolate, Hazelnut, and Coffee Syrup Cake!
Tips:
- Ensure that the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother texture.
