Easy and super delicious!

INGREDIENTS

For the sponge cake:

5 eggs

180g (1 cup) sugar

15ml (1 tbsp) vanilla extract

200g (1 1/4 cups) flour

40g (1/3 cup) cacao powder

4g (1 tsp) baking powder

For the cream:

400ml (1 1/3 cup) whipping cream

15g (1 tbsp) hazelnut cream

For the syrup:

50g (1/4 cup) sugar

200ml (3/4 cup) orange juice

100ml (1/3 cup) water

Powdered sugar (for decoration)

METHOD

Preheat the oven to 175°C/350°F.
In a large bowl beat eggs with sugar and vanilla extract for 15 minutes.
Gradually add flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Mix everything with a spatula until smooth.
Pour the mixture into a 22 cm springform lined with baking paper.
Bake for 35-40 minutes and let cool on a wire rack.
Meanwhile, prepare the syrup: combine sugar, orange juice, and water in a saucepan, bring to a boil and set aside.
In a bowl whip heavy cream for 2 minutes, add hazelnut cream, and continue to whip until thick.
Transfer the cake onto a working surface and cut it into 3 parts horizontally.
Take the top layer and cut it into small cubes. Brush remaining cake layers with the prepared syrup.
Assemble the cake: spread whipped cream over the bottom cake layer, top with another cake layer, and spread all over with cream.
Sprinkle with cake cubes and transfer to the fridge to chill for at least 1 hour.
Decorate with powdered sugar, slice, and enjoy!
