Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Preheat the oven to 160°C.
  • Transfer the hazelnuts to a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 5 - 8 minutes.
  • Separate the egg whites and yolks into two bowls.
  • Beat the egg whites with a handheld mixer for 2 - 3 minutes until stiff peaks form.
Make the batter
2
  • Whisk the yolks with 80g of cane sugar and 2 tbsp of water for 2 - 3 minutes until pale and fluffy.
  • With a spatula, gently fold in 75g of flour and the baking powder.
  • Fold in the egg whites in two batches.
Bake the cake
3
  • On a parchment-lined baking sheet, spread the batter evenly into a rectangular shape that is about 1cm thick.
  • Bake for 10 - 12 minutes until lightly golden, then allow the cake to cool.
Make the ganache
4
  • In a saucepan, heat the cream over medium-high heat until simmering.
  • Turn off the heat, add the chocolate chips and powdered sugar and stir together.
  • Allow to cool for 10 - 15 minutes.
Finish
5
  • Crush or roughly chop the hazelnuts.
  • Spread two-thirds of the ganache over the cooled cake, leaving a 1cm border. Scatter over two thirds of the hazelnuts.
  • Roll the cake tightly (but carefully to avoid cracking) and place it sealed-side down.
  • Pour the rest of the ganache on top, then transfer to the fridge for 10 - 15 minutes.
Serve
6
  • Create a wood grain effect on the log using a fork and garnish with the rest of the hazelnuts.
  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
