About the dish

Torta Pistocchi is a rich Italian chocolate cake with a velvety, fondant-like texture. The original recipe was created in 1990 by Claudio Pistocchi, and the original ingredients only include dark chocolate, unsweetened cocoa powder, and heavy cream. As a result, the cake is creamy, dense, and very moist. The creator of this cake says that it should be accompanied by almond cookies, whipped cream, and spicy caramelized pears.
