Swiss Hazelnut Cake - #TheCakeSliceBakers
For this month's Cake Slice Bakers bake, I selected the Swiss Hazelnut Cake. It has two layers with ground hazelnuts mixed into the batter and filled and frosted with a delicious frosting made in part with marshmallow cream and hazelnut liqueur. Bittersweet chocolate covers the outside. The instructions say to use a food processor to shave the chocolate. I don't own a food processor, so I chopped the chocolate. In general, I was pretty happy with this cake. The cake was tasty and moist, and I really liked the texture with the ground hazelnuts. The frosting was also good, though a little sweet, but it completely lacked hazelnut flavor. Also, I think the cake would have been better overall if the chocolate had been sandwiched in between the layers to better cut the sweetness of the frosting.
