Steps:
- Line the base of a 9" (22cm) springform cake pan.
- Preheat oven to 350F (180C).
- Roughly chop the almonds and chocolate, either by hand or in your food processor.
- Transfer almonds and chocolate to a large bowl, add the dates, and mix gently.
- With your electric mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff, then reduce the speed and gently and quickly beat in the superfine sugar.
- With a spatula, lightly fold the egg whites into the chopped nuts, chocolate and dates.
- Gently transfer the cake mixture to the prepared cake pan and flatten the top with the back of a spoon.
- Bake in the centre of the oven for approximately 40 minutes.
- Take care not to crisp the top too much, and test with a skewer to ensure the torte is baked through.
- Cool and turn out onto wire rack.
- Chill before serving.
- Just before serving, if desired, top with thick whipped cream.
- You can also swirl grated chocolate (or melted chocolate) through the cream.
