To tell you the truth? I\u2019m not a big fan of this holiday, especially because of the big dinner and meals, but I do like a festive atmosphere. Many of you have already asked me for a recipe of a festive cake without wheat flour that would be great for Passover \u2013 and here\u2019s one right now!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">This next cake is gluten-free, impressive, festive and so flavorful. If you like coffee and hazelnuts, I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll fall in love with this coffee mousse cake. This beautiful coffee mousse cake is made of a chocolate brownie base, milk chocolate coffee mousse layer and a lot of caramelized hazelnut bits on top.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Don\u2019t let its impressive appearance fool you \u2013 this cake is actually not so complex and mainly requires a little patience for cooling between the different layers. The nicest thing about this recipe is that you can make it even now for Passover and keep it in the freezer (well wrapped of course) until then.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_20200\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20200\" class=\"wp-image-20200\" title=\"Coffee Mousse Cake with Chocolate and Hazelnuts\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lilcookie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/coffee_chocolate_hazelnut_mousse_cake3-s.jpg\" alt=\"Coffee Mousse Cake with Chocolate and Hazelnuts\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20200\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Natalie Levin<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6091382327871787\" data-ad-slot=\"7832461759\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p><!--WPRM Recipe 20216--><\/p>\n<div class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe\">\n<h2 class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-name\">Coffee Mousse Cake with Chocolate and Hazelnuts<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-summary\">\n<div class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-equipment\">\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-ingredients\">\n<h4>For chocolate brownie base:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>100 grams dark chocolate<\/li>\n<li>100 grams (1 stick) butter<\/li>\n<li>100 grams (1\/2 cup) sugar<\/li>\n<li>Pinch of salt<\/li>\n<li>2 large eggs<\/li>\n<li>50 grams (1\/2 cup) almond meal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>For milk chocolate coffee mousse:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>4 grams (1 tsp.) gelatin powder<\/li>\n<li>20 ml.
