- With hands roll hazelnuts back ad forth till skins come off. Cold nuts completely.
- 2. Meanwhile, line 2 large cookie sheets with foil. Using 8-inch round cake pan or possibly plate as a guide, with toothpick, outline 4 circles on foil (2 on each cookie sheet).
- 3. In food processor with knife blade attached, or possibly in blender at medium speed, blend hazelnuts, cornstarch and 3/4 c. confectioners' sugar till hazelnuts are finely grnd.
- 4. In large bowl, with mixer at high speed, beat egg whites and cream of tartar till soft peaks form. Sprinkle in 3/4 c. confectioners' sugar, 2 Tbsp. at a time, beating well after each addition till sugar completely dissolves and whites stand in stiff, glossy peaks.

- Spoon one-fourth of meringue mix (about 1 1/4 c.) inside each circle on cookie sheets. With metal spatula, proportionately spread meringue to fill in circles.

- 8. In small bowl, with mixer at medium speed, beat 1 1/2 c. heavy cream, 1 Tbsp. confectioners' sugar, and 1/2 tsp. vanilla just till soft peaks form (don't over beat). With rubber spatula, fold half of cream mix into slightly hot melted chocolate (If chocolate is cold, it won't be smoothly incorprated into cream) just till combined.

- CHOCOLATE CURLS: In small glass bowl, combine chocolate and shortening. In microwave, cook uncovered, on MEDIUM (50%) for 2 1/2 to 3 min just till soft and shiny; stir till smooth. (Or possibly, in heavy small saucepan, heat chocolate and shortening over low heat till melted and smooth, stirring frequently). Pour melted chocolate mix into foil-lined or possibly disposable 4 1/2 by 2 1/2 inch mini loaf pan. Chill till hard, about 1 hour.
- Remove chocolate block from pan; peel off foil. Let stand at room temperature about 30 min till soft sufficient to create curls. Draw blade of vegetable peeler along surface of chocolate to make sufficient curls to garnish top of cake. Transfer curls to jelly-roll pan and chill till ready to use. Wrap and chill remaining chocolate block up to 1 month to make curls another day. (Let stand at room temperature before making curls).
