\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

4 egg whites <\/strong><\/p>\n

1 pinch of salt<\/strong><\/p>\n

2 tablespoons sugar<\/strong><\/p>\n

150g ground peeled almonds <\/strong><\/p>\n

60g zwieback<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Preparation (about 30 minutes):<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. First of all, you\u2019ll need to preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius<\/strong>. You can also take out a cake pan\u00a0<\/strong>and grease it already. Then, you take 120g of butter<\/strong>, shortly (very shortly!) put it into the microwave or leave it in the kitchen to heat up a little. Put the butter\u00a0<\/strong>in a bowl, stir in the 140g of\u00a0<\/strong>sugar <\/strong>and the 4\u00a0<\/strong>egg yolks<\/strong>, (don\u2019t forget to keep your egg whites for later!), continue stirring until the mixture turns light. Finely grate the 120g of dark chocolate\u00a0<\/strong>(you can do so by just cutting it up with a big knife on a cutting board), add the orange zest\u00a0<\/strong>and squeeze in 3 tablespoons of\u00a0<\/strong>juice <\/strong>(or basically your whole orange). Add the cocoa powder\u00a0<\/strong>and mix thoroughly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    In a different bowl, beat the egg whites\u00a0<\/strong>with the salt\u00a0<\/strong>until it\u2019s stiff, add 2 tablespoons of\u00a0<\/strong>sugar\u00a0<\/strong>and continue beating briefly until the beaten egg whites are shiny and bright like your future :).<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Grind the 60g of\u00a0<\/strong>zwieback\u00a0<\/strong>finely by crushing it in a plastic bag with a rolling pin or something similar (I used to take them and break them with my hands over a bowl when I was little. I do not recommend). Mix with ground peeled\u00a0<\/strong>almonds\u00a0<\/strong>if you like them and you\u2019re not allergic (or take the risk, you never know).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       <\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Now, mix the chocolate-orange mix with the zwieback-almond mix. Then, pour layers of the beaten egg whites onto the mixture, carefully fold them in with a rubber scraper (carefully, I\u2019m serious.) and fill the finished dough into the prepared form.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

         <\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Bake in the lower half of the oven\u00a0<\/strong>for about 50 minutes<\/strong>. Remove, leave it to cool a little, take the cake out of the mould, and let it cool some more on a rack.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

           <\/p>\n

            \n
          1. To finish off your beautiful soul-warming cake, you can either throw some powdered sugar\u00a0<\/strong>on top of your creation or, if you\u2019re feeling artsy, cover it with jam\u00a0<\/strong>(apricot, more orange, or whatever you think would taste good) and add some orange slices<\/strong>. For the second option, warm up the jam\u00a0<\/strong>in a small pan with some water, pass the mixture through a sieve, and spread the cake with it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

             <\/p>\n

              \n
            1. Enjoy!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

               <\/p>\n

              PS: if you adapt the heat and time a little, the dough can also perfectly be made into little muffins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
