  • Mix, with a spatula, the second egg mixture along with the first mixture with the melted butter and chocolate, and add the third mixture with the solid ingredients.

  • Remove from the refrigerator and pour the chocolate hazelnut spread starting from the center and moving around so that it drips to the sides of the cake.
  • Sprinkle with the toasted hazelnuts and serve.
