  • 100 g chopped hazelnuts

Instructions

  5. Pour batter into pan and bake for 30–35 minutes. Let cool completely.

Notes

  • Do not overmix batter to keep sponge light.
  • Chilling helps the cake set and enhances flavor.
  • Use full-fat cream for best texture.
  • Can add chocolate ganache for extra richness.
  • Let cake sit briefly at room temperature before serving.
