Crispy Crumbles on Gateau Chocolat

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Pour the batter into a greased and lined cake tin. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. In the meantime, prepare the crumble topping by combining almond meal, butter, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Remove the cake from the oven and sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cake. Return the cake to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the crumble is golden brown. Allow the cake to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve the crispy crumbles on Gateau Chocolat with a dusting of powdered sugar.
