How To make Passover Dark Chocolate Nut Cake
10 To 12 eggs
3 oz Unsweetened chocolate
1/2 c Semisweet chocolate pieces
2/3 c Sugar
2 c Very finely chopped almonds
-or pecans 3/4 ts Pure vanilla
1/4 ts Almond extract
1/4 c Sugar
DARK CHOCOLATE GLAZE: 1 c Semisweet chocolate pieces
1 ts Butter or margarine
1/2 ts Instant coffee crystals
1 tb Hot water
3 tb Dairy sour cream
1/4 ts Maple flavoring
Servings: 10 to 15 DIRECTIONS: Set a large mixer bowl in a sink filled with 2 inches of warm water. Separate eggs (you should have about 1 1/2 cups whites). Pour the whites into the warm mixer bowl and place yolks in a smaller mixer bowl (or let separated eggs stand, covered, at room temperature for 30 minutes). Meanwhile, in a small, heavy saucepan, partially melt unsweetened chocolate and semisweet chocolate pieces over low heat. Turn off heat and stir (chocolate will continue to melt). Cut a waxed paper liner for the bottom of a 10" tube pan, cutting it 1/2" wider than the pan and the center hole slightly larger than the tube. Grease pan thoroughly. Place liner in pan and grease liner. Beat egg yolks with an electric mixer on high speed for about 4 minutes or till they're thick and lemon colored. Add the 2/3 cup sugar, beating till very thick. Stir in the melted chocolate and chopped nuts. Thoroughly wash and dry beaters. Beat egg whites with vanilla and almond extract till foamy. Gradually add the 1/4 cup sugar to egg whites, beating till soft peaks form. Lighten egg yolk mixture with about 2 cups beaten egg whites. Add to the remaining egg white mixture and fold together to combine. Turn batter into prepared pan. Bake at 350-F for about 40 minutes or till top springs back when lightly touched. Run a knife around the edge of the pan and center to loosen. Cool in pan for 1 hour. Invert onto cake plate. Remove waxed paper. Prepare glaze; spread over top and sides of cake. Dark Chocolate Glaze: In a small heavy saucepan or skillet, melt chocolate over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in butter or margarine. In a small bowl, dissolve instant coffee in hot water. Stir in the sour cream and maple flavoring. Add sour cream mixture to chocolate, stirring till smooth and shiny. Makes 3/4 cup. Source: Midwest Living Magazine, April 1991 From: Sallie Austin

✅ TIMESTAMPS
0:00 Introduction
1:07 Whip the egg whites with sugar until stiff peaks form. I love my KitchenAid stand mixer for this.
2:00 Melt chocolate with butter.
2:30 Whip egg yolks until thick, pale and stable. Stir in the melted chocolate-butter mixture.
3:06 Add almond flour in 3 batches, adding just enough whipped egg whites to soften batter.
3:50 Carefully fold in remaining egg whites into the batter.
4:50 Transfer batter to springform pan and bake.
5:25 Make jam syrup and chocolate ganache.
6:23 Level off the cake on the top using a sharp long knife. Invert it and place on a cake plate. A nice cake lifter comes in handy for this.
7:19 Spread jam syrup and followed by ganache icing. An offset spatula is useful for this.
8:32 Decorate with chopped almonds, fresh raspberries and chocolate curls.

How to Make Passover-Friendly Desserts
Watch more How to Celebrate Jewish Holidays videos:
There are plenty of tasty treats you can make without flour or yeast; you just have to be creative!
Step 1: Know what's not kosher
Know which ingredients are not allowed during Passover: wheat, rye, barley, spelt, and oats, meaning that most kinds of flour can't be used. Leavening agents like yeast and baking powder are also a no-no.
Step 2: Learn substitutions
Learn how to make substitutions for forbidden ingredients, like a combination of matzo meal and potato starch in place of flour. Find substitution lists in kosher cookbooks and on kosher websites.
Tip
Avoid the common mistake of using too much matzo meal in dessert recipes; it makes them too heavy.
Step 3: Go nuts
Make desserts that rely on finely ground nuts to take the place of flour, or to serve as crust base for cheesecake.
Tip
Combine 1/3 cup of granulated sugar with a 1/2 teaspoon potato starch and blend them together in a food processor or coffee grinder to make kosher for Passover powdered sugar.
Step 4: Count on chocolate
Count on dark chocolate to save the day! Bake a delicious flourless chocolate cake, or make brownies using matzo meal or cake meal.
Tip
Turn plain matzo into delectable crunch bars with the addition of dark chocolate and caramel.
Step 5: Use egg whites
Make goodies that attain height and airiness from beaten egg whites rather than leavening agents, like a sponge cake, meringues, or macaroons.
Step 6: Focus on fruit
Focus on fruit-based desserts, like sorbets, honey-drizzled fruit with walnuts, or fruit compote.
