This month's Daring Bakers' Challenge is hosted by Chris of Mele Cotte. Chris chose a Filbert Gateau with Praline Buttercream by Carol Walter from her book, Great Cakes. You can find the full recipe HERE at Chris's delicious blog.
This one just about wore me out, which means it was a terrific choice for The Daring Bakers! It was absolutely scrumptious. The best part was the leftover praline paste - I put it together with some chocolate chips and a little milk, melted it all together and, voila! - my own version of Nutella! The kids couldn't have been happier with that part.
Please check out the blogroll and see everyone else's wonderful versions of this delicious cake!

Great job! This one wore me out too! And I had to make mine twice! The second time I was able to control the mess much better.
Good job! Your ganache looks fantastic! :)
Looks wonderful! Thanks for being a wonderful DBer!
Looks nice!
I, too, still have some leftover praline paste. I either will eat it straight, or figure out something! It's basically like a tricked out almond butter.

Great Job Annie! The cake looks just great! I used all the paste in my cake...but I have a homemade Nutella recipe too on my blog if your interested!!
The cake looks great! Well done!
Looking at the cake when it's in it's glorious beauty who would think it could have almost put you under. It was a great challenge and skinning those hazelnuts is not something I'm planning on doing anytime soon.
Brilliant idea with the leftover praline paste. You made a whole other meal.
Cool fun. Like me. Thanks.
I like to cook very at home. Greetings from Poland. ;)
Mmm, your cake looks wonderful! The homemade Nutella sounds amazing as well!
Perhaps reading this blog whilst being totally ravenous isn't the best thing to do.
:P
