Passover Chocolate Sponge Cake
Barbara
"This cake uses ground almonds to replace the wheat flour usually found in cakes. When preparing the almonds, a hand grinder is preferable to a food processor or blender because electric machines bring out the oil in nuts. If a blender or food processor is used, grate only 1/2 cup at a time. Do not pack down when measuring."

Well I am a bit surprised that there is no butter, but I guess the oil was supposed to come from almonds. It is kinda dry and it was not easy to fold the egg whites in as the egg yolk+chocolate+...

Wanted something a bit zippier, but this was a good recipe for inspiration. (1) I used 8 eggs (room temperature) instead of 10 and did not separate; beat for 15 minutes with 1-1/2 cups sugar. (...
