1. Preheat the oven. Grease an ovenproof dish with butter.
2. Sift the flour, baking powder and ginger together. Chop the hazelnuts finely in a food processor and then add the flour mixture to the hazelnuts.
3. Add 100ml of the butter and 125ml of the sugar and pulse until just mixed.
4. Melt the remaining 60ml butter in a saucepan, add the remaining 60ml sugar and stir until this mixture starts to caramelise. Remove from the heat and add the rum.
