This is a fantastic passover recipe - and a darn good recipe for year round use. I made it yesterday for the first time and have another one in the oven right now! Follow the directions exactly as written - nothing needs to be changed!

Excellent! Perfect for Passover and my gluten-free daughter! The only down side is it is very high in calories, and I have trouble staying away from it...Plus it's best with no glaze, but heated and served ala mode! Yum!

This is incredible! I love chocolate, so with some ganache, it is delicious. The cooling is very important to get the full fudgey-ness.

The cake was good but I should have baked it longer. I put it in for 45 minutes and the outside of the cake was good but the inside/middle part of the cake didn't have the desired consistency or taste that I was looking for. Another tip is to make sure you grind the almonds to a flour consistency. My almonds weren't ground good enough and you could taste them in the cake. I served them with fresh strawberries but I think itwould go well with a rasberry sauce. I think the tartness in the rasberries would compliment the chocolate very well.

Made this for my first Passover and it was a huge hit. I served with rasberries and blackberries and the satiny chocolate glaze others have mentioned. I also ground my almonds in the coffee grinder - I didn't think they were quite fine enough but I seemed to be the only one who minded.

I just made a double recipe in a 10-inch springform pan and baked it for about 60 minutes at 350F and it turned out great.

Wow, totally delicious! I'm going to make this all year 'round. The only thing I'd do differently next time is grind the almonds more finely.

A really wonderful cake, soft and rich but not too heavy. A big success at the seder, but I could also see serving this year-round. By the way, when I made this recipe I used 100g of ground almonds (I bake by weight instead of volume).

I made this for the 1st seder and it was a huge hit. i made this with butter (not parve) and iced it with the chocolate ganache recipe from this site (also not parve) and topped with sliced strawberries. it's very rich and the perfect dessert for chocolate lovers! thanks for the recipe - i'll be making it again!

Great cake - everyone loved it, though I did not make it for passover, so I used butter. I also substituted dark chocolate chips for the semi-sweet chocolate and decreased the sugar slightly. Served it with homemade coffee ice cream.

Was pretty good but not stellar. I followed the recipe exactly, and it didn't set up as firm (even in a very cold refrigerator) as I'd hoped--was pretty messy to serve. Still, it tasted good.

This was such a hit at passover. I did use the chocolate glaze that others recommended, I think that made it look beautiful. Next time I will serve with berries on the side, esp raspberries or strawberries. I made it in a 9 inch round pan, still using the foil, and the Pam spray with flour and it worked great. I also roasted some raw almonds and ground them in my Magic Bullet. I was even asked to make it for shabbat the next week. Yum!

This torte was fantastic. I mis read the recipe and cooked the torte in a water bath instead. The torte cooked all the way through. My daughter helped make it and the recipe was so easy. We love chocolate and this is almost exactly like a flourless chocolate cake. Thanks for the great recipe!
