How to prepare:
Preheat the oven to 175°C/350°F (fan oven 160°C/310°F).
Beat the butter creamy and add alternately sugar, orange grater and eggs.
Mix cornstarch and baking powder and sift over the butter.
Fold carefully in with a wooden spoon and add bit by bit the ground hazelnuts.
Grease a baking pan, sprinkle with breadcrumbs and spoon the batter in.
Bake the cake 45 minutes and let cool on a wire rack.
Beat for the glaze the butter creamy and add alternately icing sugar and cocoa.
Dissolve the powder coffee in 1-2 tablespoons hot water and mix with the glaze.
Spread the cake with glaze and divide the hazelnuts so every piece will get a nut when the cake is cut.
