    Since this cake was made primarily for my other half, I didn't include the liqueur, so it lacked that soaked-in-moisture (as well as the flavor!), but the inclusion of the espresso & the instant coffee made him happy enough! Now I just have to figure out a way to eliminate the coffee (for myself) & still have an acceptable dessert (maybe making two 2-layer cakes & adding the coffee to only one of the cakes! Anyway, in spite of the coffee, you do have a very nice birthday cake here! [Tagged, made & reviewed under the theme, BK's Chocolate 'Espressons' in the current Comfort Cafe]

    Kato’s Chocolate Hazelnut Delight Torte, This is the cake that I request for my birthday It’s so good, definitely worth the extra effort I hope you enjoy , Since this cake was made primarily for my other half, I didn’t include the liqueur, so it lacked that soaked-in-moisture (as well as the flavor!), but the inclusion of the espresso & the instant coffee made him happy enough! Now I just have to figure out a way to eliminate the coffee (for myself) & still have an acceptable dessert (maybe making two 2-layer cakes & adding the coffee to only one of the cakes! Anyway, in spite of the coffee, you do have a very nice birthday cake here! [Tagged, made & reviewed under the theme, BK’s Chocolate ‘Espressons’ in the current Comfort Cafe], tasty and nice presentation i also recommend chilling completely or letting the Frangelico soak into the cake for a few hours before serving instead of box cake, used my own from scratch recipe
