No Bake Chocolate Cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degree F (177 degree
C) and place rack in the middle of the oven. Lightly butter an 8 inch (20
cm) tart or cake pan.
If using hazelnuts: place the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and bake for
about 15 minutes or until fragrant and the skins begin to flake (peel).
Remove from oven and place a clean dish towel on top of the nuts. Let the
nuts sit (steam) for a few minutes and then rub the nuts in the towel briskly
to remove the skins. Let cool and then chop coarsely.
If using almonds, walnuts, pecans, and/or macadamia nuts: Place nuts on a
baking sheet and bake for about 8 - 10 minutes or until l ightly brown and
fragrant. Let cool then chop coarsely.
Then in a heatproof bowl, placed over a saucepan of simmering water,
melt the butter and chocolate.
Meanwhile, break or chop the digestive cookies into small pieces (about
1/2 inch).
Once the butter and chocolate are melted, remove from heat and stir in the
digestive cookies, along with their crumbs, and the chopped nuts.
Spread this mixture into a l ightly buttered 8 inch (20 cm) tart or cake pan,
cover, and refrigerate for several hours or until set. Cut or break into slices.
