NUTELLA CAPRESE CAKE, a delicious flourless chocolate cake with Nutella, almonds, easy and quick to prepare, perfect for Sunday.
The Nutella Caprese Cake is a scrumptious variation of the famous Neapolitan dessert, loved for its richness and softness. This delight is born from the combination of the traditional Caprese cake, known for its chocolate and almond flavor, with the unmistakable creaminess of Nutella.
The texture is dense and moist, almost fudge-like, thanks to the perfect blend of ingredients. Nutella adds a level of indulgence that makes every bite a moment of pure pleasure. The dark chocolate and chopped almonds create a robust base, while Nutella imparts a velvety, enveloping touch, making it irresistibly creamy.
Ideal as a dessert for special occasions or as a daily treat, the Nutella Caprese Cake pairs perfectly with a cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk. It’s a dessert that captivates with its simplicity, perfect in any season.
Served with a dusting of powdered sugar, a dollop of whipped cream, or simply on its own, this cake is a celebration of chocolate.

FAQ (Questions and Answers) NUTELLA CAPRESE CAKE
Can I make the Nutella Caprese Cake in advance?
Yes, you can prepare the cake in advance. In fact, letting it rest for a few hours or even overnight in the fridge allows the flavors to meld better, making it even more delicious. Remember to take it out of the fridge a little while before serving to allow it to reach room temperature.
Does the Nutella Caprese need to be refrigerated?
It is advisable to keep the cake in the fridge, especially in the hotter months, to prevent the Nutella and chocolate from melting. Store it in an airtight container to keep it fresh and fragrant. Before serving, let it rest at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes.
Can I substitute almonds with another type of nuts?
Yes, you can experiment with other nuts like hazelnuts, walnuts, or pistachios. However, keep in mind that the flavor and texture of the cake will slightly change depending on the nuts used.
