Chocolate Angel Food Cake with Nutella Ganache Sauce

Chocolate Angel Food Cake with Nutella Ganache Sauce. A light as air chocolate angel food cake with a warm, ultimately indulgent Nutella ganache sauce. Chocolate Angel Food Cake with Nutella Ganache Sauce I recently ran a poll on our Facebook Page asking fans to vote for a favourite dessert flavour. Fans were asked which would be the one that they would be most drawn to on a restaurant menu. Not surprisingly, chocolate outnumbered its nearest rival, lemon, with over twice as many votes. I promised our page fans a new chocolate dessert recipe in honour of their favourite flavour’s victory and here it is, in all its gorgeous chocolate glory. It was also a surprise for our Nutella loving daughter who also happens to adore angel food cake. This recipe got a big stamp of approval from her. Toasted hazelnuts make a terrific garnish for serving this cake, while giving it extra flavour and a great textural crunch. Simply roast them on a cookie sheet for about 10 minutes in a preheated 350 degrees F oven. If the skins are still on the hazelnuts when you roast them, remove the skins by rolling the nuts in a folded tea towel. Add the nuts to one half of the towel, fold over and roll the nuts inside using your palms. 50% cocoa dark chocolate chips. I like dark chocolate chips at 50% cocoa content for this recipe but milk or semisweet chips are good too.  Originally Published Feb 23, 2012. Updated July 2019. Love chocolate desserts?
