~ Chestnut and Cocoa Cake

Overview

Chestnuts are one of my favorite nuts. Every autumn during the chestnut harvest season, I buy some chestnuts to take home, cook them, peel them, and store them in the freezer. It can be used to make chestnut puree, chestnut cake, chestnut mousse, and chestnut cake. The cake with chestnut paste has a mellow taste and a sweet but not greasy texture.
