Chocolate pie cake

To prepare the chocolate pie cakes, first separate the egg yolks from the egg whites into two bowls 1. In the bowl with the egg whites, add the sugar 2 and lemon juice 3.

Add the salt 4 and beat 5 until you obtain a frothy mixture 6. Place it in the refrigerator.

In another bowl, pour the milk and oil 7, mix quickly, then add the flour 8. Mix for a couple of minutes with a hand whisk 9.

Add the egg yolks 10 and mix once more 11. Pour this mixture into the bowl with the beaten egg whites and fold from the bottom up to avoid deflating the mixture 12. Place the mixture in the fridge while preheating the oven to 320°F.

Put the mixture in a piping bag without a nozzle and form domes on a baking tray lined with parchment paper 13; with these quantities, you will get 10 domes 14. Bake at 320°F for 30-35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely 15.

Meanwhile, prepare the ganache: chop the dark chocolate 16 and put it in a bowl, then add the hot cream 17 and stir until all the chocolate has melted 18.

Place the bowl inside another larger one filled with ice and water 19. Work with electric whisks 20 until the mixture becomes frothy and changes color 21.

Transfer the ganache into a piping bag and fill 5 domes 22, then cover with the remaining ones 23. Chop the hazelnuts 24.

In a bowl, put the chopped dark chocolate, add the oil 25, and melt. Then add the hazelnuts 26 and stir 27.

Dip the cakes into the chocolate, then let them drain to remove the excess 28. Place them on a rack 29 and let the glaze set. Your chocolate pie cakes are ready to be enjoyed 30!
