Chocolate Hazelnut TorteRomulo Yanes

This torte is a masterful mix of textures: The top crust bakes up with a hint of crackly crunch, giving way to a moist, light interior studded with tiny bits of hazelnut.

Cooks' note:

Torte can be made 1 day ahead and cooled completely, then kept in pan, covered with plastic wrap, at room temperature.
