Nougat cake

Nougat cake
Dad is coming to my place for dinner on his birthday.
Since it's a birthday, there must be a cake.

Bake the cake base with eggs, butter, sugar and hazelnut chips without flour at all. The taste is soft and crispy with rustling hazelnuts; the aroma is intoxicating.
Make your own NougatCreme. Use hazelnut Nougat and dark chocolate, stir in the cream to form a Nougat sauce like Ferrero chocolate. and hazelnut cake base to make a cake.
Finally, stick the almond slices and place the almonds.
Become an out-and-out nut cake that makes people feel overwhelmed.

Small tip: Don't make it too big. Because the nuts and butter content are too high. Nuts can't stop once you eat them, and the same goes for this cake. So making it smaller can prevent eating too much and consuming too much fat and sugar.

So I used a mold to press two small ones out. If you make a whole cake with a diameter of 18cm, the operation process is the same.

    Beat the cream without beating until it is firm, you can pull out the soft tip. It is best to use special cake cream to better maintain the shape. If you use ordinary butter to beat it, you need to consider adding a little cream stabilizer or Gidin tablets here.
