LEMON TORTA CAPRESE AUTHENTIC RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the almond flour into the food processor and add the white chocolate in pieces. Now finely chop the chocolate with almond flour. Finally add the sugar and mix, always with the food processor, to combine.
• Add the butter cut into pieces. Mix the butter with the mixture of white chocolate, sugar and almond flour with the food processor for a few minutes at maximum speed. Transfer to a bowl. Now add the eggs 1 at a time.
• Add the lemon juice obtained from squeezing 2 lemons. Mix well to combine. Finally add the lemon zest obtained from 3 untreated lemons amd mix.
• Place a sheet of parchment paper on your round paking pan and pour the mixture. Level it with a spoon. Then bake it in a preheated oven at 180° (350F) for about 45 minutes. If you see that the cake is becoming too dark on top and may burn, turn off the oven but leave it inside until the time runs out. Once ready, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool before serving. Lemon Torta Caprese is even better if eaten the next day sprinkled with icing sugar.

LEMON TORTA CAPRESE

Steps:

• Place the butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl fitted over a saucepan with some simmering water and melt until smooth. Cool slightly until just warm to the touch.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the inside of a 9-inch springform pan.
• Place the egg whites in a medium bowl with the salt. Place the yolks in a slightly larger bowl with the granulated sugar. Using a handheld mixer, beat the whites on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixer to the bowl with the yolks and beat on medium speed until light, pale and fluffy, about 1 1/2 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, stir the chocolate mixture, almond flour and lemon zest and juice into the yolk mixture. In 2 batches, fold the whipped whites into the chocolate mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until puffed, golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs, about 45 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
• Run a thin knife around the edge of the pan to release the cake. Remove the outside ring and dust the top with confectioners' sugar. Serve with soft whipped cream, if desired.
