For an even richer flavor, use dark chocolate cocoa powder. To prevent the cake from sticking, line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper. The icing should be poured over the cake while both are still warm to ensure proper absorption. Feel free to substitute other nuts, such as pecans or hazelnuts, or omit them altogether. Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
