A dark chocolate flourless cake made with ground almonds, flavoured with a hint of coffee and rum. This version of the Italian recipe contains some peanuts, which are roasted and then ground. You could use hazelnuts or almonds instead, then use a multi mill or food processor to process until finely ground. In Italy this cake is often served with mascarpone cream or a few drops of balsamic vinegar, or you could serve it with some sour cherries in syrup.
