  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s yet another <a href="http://www.elanaspantry.com/chocolate-walnut-torte/">delicious gluten-free kosher for Passover recipe</a>; it is based on a recipe I found on epicurean.com.  My husband was very enthusiastic about this dessert, eating the crumbs off of the serving plate.  Just a word of caution, this moist tart can be a bit crumbly this is normal and does not mean you&#8217;ve done anything wrong.</p>]]>
