Here’s a recipe for a Chocolate Hazelnut Truffle Cake garnished with Ferrero Rocher, along with approximate ingredient quantities and nutrition information:
Ingredients:
For the cake:
- 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
For the frosting:
- 1 cup Nutella or chocolate hazelnut spread
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- Ferrero Rocher chocolates for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.
- Stir in the boiling water until the batter is well combined. It will be thin, but that’s normal.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
- Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
For the frosting:
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and Nutella until creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, alternating with milk, until the frosting reaches your desired consistency.
- Once the cakes are completely cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of frosting on top.
- Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.
- Garnish the top of the cake with Ferrero Rocher chocolates.
