Coffee Hazelnut Vertical Layer Cake

Hazelnuts and coffee, a dangerously addictive combination. I could eat the whole cake by myself haha.

Yes my hands don't look great, especially in this video - hope that doesn't prevent you from trying this recipe. Anyone with eczema, I'm sure you know the struggle... :(

NOTE:
For the hazelnut butter, you can either use store bought or home made. Here's how to make hazelnut butter from scratch:

Blend roasted hazelnuts (for this cake, use 170g) in a food processor or blender.
Scrape the sides every once in a while. Eventually it will become a smooth thick liquid - this may time some time.
When the hazelnuts have become smooth, transfer into a container.
*Make sure your hazelnut butter is not warm when adding to the cream, or your cream may separate (room temperature hazelnut butter is ok though!).
