This decadent, rich, chocolate chestnut torte can be made with paleo ingredients (or not) and topped with ganache and cranberries\u00a0for a delicious and beautiful holiday dessert.<\/p>\n

Chestnuts are\u00a0seasonal and Christmasy, and\u00a0I have always wanted to play around with them.\u00a0Italians use them\u00a0in many ways. They eat them roasted, pureed with sugar and milk, as well as dried and ground into a flour to bake with. I have seen very creative recipes that use chestnuts\u00a0for\u00a0Thanksgiving stuffing and some pretty amazing looking pasta dishes too.<\/p>\n

Slightly sweet and nutty, the chestnut has a mild flavor and is easy to play with and\u00a0snack on. I think they would be a great trail snack if you like to hike. They’re portable, loaded with natural sugars and starch, have\u00a0a decent amount of fiber, and\u00a0are a good energy booster!<\/p>\n

I have added them to this decadent, rich, chocolate torte. While I think they could be left out if you can’t find them in the grocery store, they are worth trying. I purchased mine peeled and roasted.<\/p>\n
