We LOVED this simple and easy dessert. In my usual way though, I made 3 changes. <br />1. I roasted the hazelnuts and removed as many of the bitter skins as possible.<br />2. The baking time was increased by at least 20 minutes as I think that the noted time was a misprint.<br />3. The torte wasn't much to look at on the cake stand, so a dusting of powdered sugar was in order.
