Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups margarine
  • 1 ¼ cups white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornstarch
  • 1 cup ground hazelnuts
  • 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar (Optional)

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.

Step 2
Cream margarine and sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Step 3
Mix flour, cornstarch, hazelnuts, and cocoa powder in a separate bowl and quickly mix into the margarine mixture. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely before dusting with confectioners' sugar.
