Ingredients
- 2 None large oranges
- 3 cups chopped hazelnuts
- 1 3/4 cups sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 9 None eggs
- 5 oz dark chocolate, broken into pieces
Method
- Place the whole, unpeeled oranges in a saucepan, cover with water, put on a lid and bring to a boil. Simmer over a low heat for 2 hours. Drain and allow to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a ring mold pan. Cut the oranges in half and remove the seeds. Place the oranges in a bowl and puree with a hand blender.
- In a separate bowl, mix the hazelnuts, sugar, vanilla extract, baking powder and a pinch of salt. In a third bowl, beat the eggs until creamy with a hand mixer. Stir in the orange puree, then the hazelnut mixture in 2 batches. Spoon into the pan and smooth out. Bake for 1 hour, or until a skewer comes out clean, covering with aluminum foil 20 mins before the end of the baking time.
- Allow to cool in the pan for 40 mins, then turn out on to a wire rack and allow to cool completely.
- Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Allow to cool a little, then drizzle over the cake so it runs down the sides. Allow to dry.
