Ingredients
- Chopped almonds - 3 tablespoons
- Sugar - 6 tablespoons
- Wheat Flour - 1¼ cups
- Orange zest - 2 teaspoons

- Liquid dark chocolate - 12 oz

Step by Step guide
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 356°F.
Step 2
In a food processor, grind the almonds, then add sugar, flour, zest, and salt. Mix well. Then add the softened butter and mix again.
Step 3
Spread the dough in a shallow round baking pan and evenly distribute it across the bottom and sides.
Step 4
Bake until golden brown for about 25 minutes. Cool for 1 hour.
Step 5
Chop the chocolate and transfer it to a bowl. In a saucepan, heat the cream without bringing it to a boil. Combine the chocolate with the hot cream, adding vanilla, until smooth.

Spread the chocolate ganache over the cooled cake (if the ganache has lumps, strain it through a sieve). Chill for 1–2 hours until set.
