Stephanie Jaworski of Joyofbaking.com demonstrates how to make a Chocolate Almond Torte. I find myself making this Chocolate Almond Torte when I crave chocolate. I love this chocolate cake's moist texture and its rich chocolate flavor. What you may find unique is that ground almonds are used instead of flour in this cake. The ground almonds add a subtle almond flavor as well as a pleasant coarseness to the torte's texture.

Flourless Chocolate Almond Cake | Gluten free recipes
Gluten free was never this delicious!
The chocolate flavour in this cake is so intense thanks to both the dark chocolate and the cocoa powder!
We take it up a notch by adding ground almonds which gives it not only a subtle nutty taste but it also gives it structure which makes for a truly decadent dessert
Brandy is a nice touch but totally optional
Overall, this cake is great on its own, its rich, dense and super duper chocolatey
Oh and another great thing about flourless cakes is the fact that those cracks you see at the top are expected! phew, you cant go wrong! ;)
I like to enjoy this with a dollop of freshly whipped cream :)
