Bob's Red Mill Sweets to the Sweet

Flourless Chocolate Almond Torte

This flourless chocolate cake is light and spongy with a rich chocolate-almond flavor. Great on its own or as layers of a frosted cake.

INSTRUCTIONS • When yolks are light and fluffy, gently fold yolks into cooled chocolate mixture, followed by the vanilla and almond extracts. Then, gently fold the almond flour mixture into the chocolate-yolk mixture and set aside. • In a clean, dry mixing bowl, beat the egg whites to medium peaks, 2–3 minutes with an electric mixer. Add ⅓ of the whipped egg whites to the chocolate mixture and fold in thoroughly to lighten the chocolate mixture. Continue to fold in the remaining egg whites, in two portions, into the chocolate mixture until the batter is light and evenly colored, with no white sections remaining. • Transfer batter to the prepared cake pan and spread evenly, taking care not to flatten the batter too much. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. • Let cool, then loosen the edges of the cake from the pan before removing the pan ring. Serve with powdered sugar or whipped cream, if desired. Makes 12 servings. j INGREDIENTS 4 oz Bittersweet Chocolate, chopped (at least 60% cocoa) 5 Eggs, separated ½ cup Honey 2 cups Bob’s Red Mill ® Almond Flour ¼ tsp Salt 1 tsp Vanilla Extract ½ tsp Almond Extract • Preheat oven to 350°F; spray a 9-inch springform cake pan with pan spray. • Place chopped chocolate in a small saucepan and melt over very low heat, stirring frequently.
