Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 350 F (180 C). Line or grease a 8x8 inch spring form pan with parchment paper.
Into a food processor, add in the hazelnut butter, coconut sugar, cocoa powder, soft tofu and rum. Blend until smooth.
Add in the melted dark chocolate and blend until smooth, scrapping down the sides as needed.
Add in the hazelnut meal, tapioca starch and baking powder. Blend until combined and a uniform thick batter forms.
Quickly transfer the batter into the spring form pan and smooth out the tops. Be sure to work quickly as the chocolate will begin to firm up.
Bake in the oven for 38-40 minutes. Let it cool on the counter until room temperature. Then place in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours- preferably overnight. Dust with cocoa powder and serve alone or with coconut whip cream.

Notes

How to Store/Make Ahead: Once completely cooled, tightly wrap or cover with a lid. Place in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freeze for up to 2 months. Defrost overnight in the fridge when ready to eat. Dust with cocoa powder/powdered sugar before serving.
