Spanish Chocolate and Almond Cake
Ingredients:


Eggs - 4
Softened butter – 5 tbsp
Granulated sugar – 1/3 cup
Raw almonds – 3 oz
Shaved chocolate – 1 ½ oz
Lady fingers - 6
Milk – 4 oz
Orange juice – 2 ½ oz
Corn starch – 1 tbsp
Unbleached white flour – 1 tbsp
Cocoa powder – 1 tbsp
Powdered sugar for dusting

Method:
Preheat oven on 360F, 180C. Grease a spring form pan with vegetable shortening. Separate the yolks and egg whites into separate bowls. Blanch, peel and toast the almonds on a baking sheet at 360F for 5-10 minutes. Grind them in a food processor and set aside. To reduce preparation time, buy peeled blanched almonds in the store and grind them. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, adding sugar and beating until mixture is smooth. Add egg yolks one at a time, continuously mixing. Add the ground almonds and shaved chocolate and mix well on low with a hand mixer. In another bowl, pour in milk and Liquor 43. Soak the lady fingers until soft, then add to the butter-sugar mixture and mix well. Add flour and corn starch and mix. Beat the egg whites to a stiff point, which takes about 5 minutes with an electric hand mixer. Fold into the batter using a spatula. Bake in oven on middle rack for about 35 minutes. Check cake after 20 minutes. Cake is done when a toothpick is inserted into the centre and come out clean.
Cool cake on a rack. When cool, remove sides of pan. Before serving dust with the cocoa and powdered sugar.
