The aroma of cooked oranges and melted chocolate brings a touch of freshness and warmth, just like the first sunny days of spring. This moist cake perfectly combines citrus notes with the rich texture of almonds, creating a light yet indulgent treat. Ideal to enjoy with a cup of coffee on the terrace as nature slowly comes back to life.
Pierce the whole oranges (with peel) with a fork, place them in cold water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook for another 15 minutes. Drain the water and repeat the same process once more. Then place the cooked oranges in a blender and blend until smooth.
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with sugar, then add the blended oranges, melted butter, ground almonds, flour, baking powder, and rum. Mix everything well. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites, then add the raisins and chopped chocolate.
Pour the batter into a baking pan and bake for about 45 minutes at 180°C (350°F), until the top is nicely golden brown.
