Hazelnut Ganache Mini Cakes
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini cake pan.
-
In a bowl, whisk together hazelnut flour, all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a separate bowl, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.
-
Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
-
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a saucepan, heat heavy cream until just simmering. Remove from heat and add dark chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and creamy. Let the ganache cool slightly.
-
Once the cakes have cooled, use a small spoon to create a well in the center of each cake. Fill the wells with hazelnut spread.
-
Pour the ganache over the cakes, allowing it to drip down the sides. Let the ganache set for about 30 minutes.
-
Dust the cakes with powdered sugar and garnish with chopped hazelnuts.
-
Serve and enjoy!
